Sun Life Philippines (Sun Life) takes pride in having two of its top executives, namely Sun Life Investment Management and Trust Corporation (SLIMTC) President Michael Gerard Enriquez and Sun Life General Counsel Atty. Edgar Tordesillas, achieve acclaim in their respective fields.

Enriquez was dubbed as among the Top 25 ASEAN Selectors, an honor given to the most influential product gatekeepers and investment professionals in the ASEAN region by financial publishing and data group Citywire.

The recognition program uses quantitative and qualitative criteria to recognize those who take the lead in investment and product conversations throughout the region and have made tangible improvements in their respective organizations’ product selection, digital platform, or personnel.

“It is a great honor to be among the Top 25 ASEAN Selectors,” says Enriquez. “This award is a testament to our commitment to  providing clients with the best investing experience possible. I am proud of the accomplishments we have achieved through steady and confident strides.”

Meanwhile, Atty. Tordesillas joins the roster of the vaunted members of the Philippines’ first ever GC Powerlist, a recognition program for the country’s top in-house lawyers as evaluated by publisher The Legal 500. It recognizes in-house lawyers that have been instrumental in changing or forming opinions within their company or industry, developing brilliant technical solutions to complex issues, creating innovative structures to ensure that the in-house function is driving the business, and providing a business working model worthy of emulation by other corporate counsel.

“Integrity is non-negotiable for us at Sun Life. Along with my Legal Team, it is my privilege to help bring this to life as the company’s General Counsel,” says Atty. Tordesillas. “This recognition will further inspire us to become instruments of change for our clients’ brighter future.”
