MetLife's efforts to focus on the benefits of a healthy environment can be traced back to 1871, just three years after the company was formed. At that time, MetLife encouraged its policyholders to "let in the sunlight" and to remember that "pure water" and "fresh air" will ensure a healthier life.
- More than 2.5 billion people—almost half the world’s population—live on less than $2.50 per day.
- The vast majority of them live without access to the basic financial services everyone needs to build more secure lives: a safe place to save money, affordable credit, insurance, money transfers, pensions.
- If they had access to these tools—if they were financially included—their families’ and communities’ lives would be better: better protected, less stressful, and more productive.
- More and more financial services providers, policymakers, donors, and others are looking for—and finding—innovative ways to expand financial inclusion.
- MetLife Foundation is well positioned to be part of the solution. Along with our financial resources, MetLife’s talented global workforce and our long history as an industry leader makes financial inclusion a powerful fit
