Manila,October 5th 2018 —Union Bank of the Philippinesreceived The Automobile Lending Product of the Year awardfor the Philippines at The Asian Banker Philippines Country Awards 2018.

Union Bank of the Philippines has launched the “Autoloan Lite” to solve a customer pain point
Union Bank of the Philippines has launched the “Autoloan Lite” to resolve a major customer painpoint by integrating the payment of monthly insurance premiums with the amortisation of the loan. As a source of affordable insurance, customers were freed of the need to renew their insurance yearly. This adds value to the bank’s customers.
The bank successfully managed a favorable delinquency rate and non performing loan ratio
The “Autoloan Lite” saw its non-performing loan (NPL) and delinquency rate at 1.3% and 3.6% respectively. This was below the industry standard for NPLs of 4% to 6%. This might be attributed to the lower financing rate that leads to easier monthly amortisation.
The bank’s “Autoloan Lite” added value to its customers and improved the customer experience through its features
The bank’s “Autoloan Lite” met the needs of its customers by offering a low initial cash out. It also offered easier car financing by combining the loan repayment with the loan repayment. Furthermore, the product offers numerous value-added services to its customers such as theft prevention tools and a 24 hour road assistance program that provides amenities such as towing and tire replacement.
