A shift in how Filipinos view longevity is emerging, as they prioritize quality of life more than simply living longer as they age, according to the Manulife Asia Care Survey 2025: “Embracing Longevity: Enjoying a Better Life.” The comprehensive study, which surveyed 1,000 Filipinos, revealed that only 13% of respondents chose living a longer life as their top wish when they consider their older years, while 26% prioritize financial independence and 17% value staying physically, mentally, and socially active.
Manulife Philippines, the local arm of the leading international financial services provider Manulife, has been named one of the country’s Trusted Brands for 2025, winning a Gold Award in the Life Insurance category.
