FWD Insurance and MCX Pave the Road to Progress

It was a day filled with cute orange mini coopers, people smiling and waving as these orange mini coopers paraded onto South Luzon Expressway and MCX last December 7th. The FWD Orange Parade was held to celebrate FWD - Muntinlupa- Cavite Expressway (MCX) symbolizing the country’s road to progress. FWD Insurance, part of pan-Asian FWD Group, and AC Infrastructure Holdings Corporation (AC Infra), fully-owned subsidiary of the Ayala Corporation (AC), announce their Expressway Sponsorship Program which unveils the newly renamed FWD-Muntinlupa-Cavite Expressway (MCX).

The FWD-MCX Sponsorship Program

The FWD-MCX, is a crucial artery between Muntinlupa and Cavite—connecting the South Luzon Expressway (SLEX) to Daang Hari, Cavite in around 3 minuites or less,giving this convenience to thousands of motorists and commuters everyday. With this newly signed agreement, the first of its kind for a Philippine insurer, FWD Insurance seeks to elevate the expressway as a symbol of the nation’s “road to progress”.

“The FWD-MCX contributes to economic progress by enabling businesses to expand their geographic market reach outside of Metro Manila,” FWD Insurance Chairman of the Board and former Ambassador to the USA Jose L. Cuisia, Jr. said. “The expressway serves as a critical route for their operations and opens up opportunities for them to serve immediate local communities.” Peter Grimes, President and Chief Executive Officer of FWD Insurance, said, “This is an exciting new venture for FWD and we’re proud to pioneer a program that has never been done by a Philippine insurer.”

Accidents are not a problem with FWD Insurance

Aside from the Orange Parade of mini coopers, FWD Insurance celebrates its fifth anniversary in the Philippines by providing one-year accidental insurance to 500 customers with Php500,000 coverage. The coverage will align with the insurer’s continuing efforts to protect more Filipino lives and secure their and their loved ones’ financial peace of mind.

“The FWD-MCX is not only a road to us at FWD, but a notable landmark that stands as a testament to innovation and how far FWD has come in the last five years,” Amb. Cuisia said. “Since starting operations in the Philippines in 2014, we have achieved numerous milestones, becoming one of the country’s fastest-growing insurance companies and, more recently, consolidating our place as a top-ten insurer.”



“We’re excited to touch more lives as we play a role in building a more connected and progressive society,” Grimes added.

“Much like how the newly unveiled FWD-MCX stands as a symbol of progress—now and in the future—we aim to encourage Filipinos everywhere to progress by empowering them to live life to the fullest, covered by our customer-led product innovations as part of our vision to change the way people feel about insurance.”
