On 26th June 2017 ABA Bank officially signed exclusive 15-year Partnership Agreement with Manulife Cambodia.

The official Partnership Agreement signing ceremony took place at Raffles Hotel Le Royal Phnom Penh and was witnessed by ABA and Manulife key management teams.
Speaking on this special occasion, Mr. Askhat Azhikhanov, CEO of ABA Bank said: “This partnership allows offering our valued customers quality life insurance products for their protection. It means that our clients get more reliable tools to make their lives and lives of their families safer. In addition to ABA’s short-term saving products, our customers also gain access to long-term saving products for, let us say, their child’s education or saving for own retirement. And for this, we have chosen a truly professional player in the global market of life insurance, Manulife.”
“With this partnership, we are deepening on the relationship with ABA Bank, and I think the fact that we have Canadian parents will allow us to work closer. With the two teams working together, we will maximize that great opportunity. Optimizing bancassurance is one of our strategic pillars in Asia. Manulife has a highly successful bancassurance partnership across 12 markets in Asia including in Cambodia,” stated Mr. Robert Elliott, CEO and General Manager of Manulife Cambodia.
