BPI brings Suze Orman to Manila

MANILA, Philippines - True to its advocacy of democratizing access to financial advice and espousing financial wellness, Bank of the Philippine Islands (BPI) is proud to bring renowned financial expert Susan “Suze” Orman to the Philippines for a series of inspiring talks about personal finance.

BPI and Orman share similar advocacies on financial wellness. Orman, multi-awarded television host, motivational speaker and best-selling author, is America’s most trusted financial advisor. BPI has been a prime mover of financial wellness in the country, through its various financial literacy and advisory programs for its various customer segments. The bank makes available expert speakers not only to high networth individuals and corporate clients, but also to overseas Filipinos, salaried employees and SMEs, and addresses their financial needs through relevant, easily-accessible savings, investment and credit options.

Orman’s upcoming talks to BPI audiences, her first-ever appearance in the country, provides a high point in the bank’s financial literacy campaign. BPI believes Orman’s message will provide inspiration to those who want to become more financially well.

Orman will be giving a series of talks to clients and employees of BPI, starting with an invitational customer event on Feb. 25 at the NBC Tent. Orman’s wealth of experience in personal finance promises to make the event a first-rate source of practical advice for Filipino customers to better manage and grow their money.

Orman has been called “a force in the world of personal finance” and a “one-woman financial advice powerhouse” by USA Today. She is also a two-time Emmy Award-winning television host, New York Times mega bestselling author, magazine, and online columnist.

Orman is the contributing editor to “O” The Oprah Magazine, the Costco Connection Magazine, and for the last 10 years host of the award winning Suze Orman Show on CNBC. Not only is she the single most successful fundraiser in the history of public television, but she has also won the most Gracie Awards than any individual. The Gracie Allen Tribute Award is bestowed upon an individual who truly plays a key role in laying the foundation for future generations of women in media.
