HONG KONG, June 9, 2021 - (ACN Newswire) - The MDRT Academy ( https://mdrtacademy.org/ ) - a new association helping financial professionals accelerate their careers - recently welcomed more than 670 advisors from Sun Life Asia to its membership ranks. The addition of 184 Sun Life advisors from Hong Kong and the rest of Asia including the Philippines, Indonesia, Vietnam and Malaysia will make Sun Life the MDRT Academy's largest membership company to date. The Academy will supplement Sun Life's Brighter Gen and Brighter Pro training and development program, and together support Sun Life's ambition to be a market leader in quality financial advice.
"Sun Life's goal is to have the most respected advisors in the industry, known for the quality of their advice and their professionalism," said Leo Grepin, Sun Life Asia President.
