Our purpose
People are living for longer, and at Aegon we welcome the possibilities that this brings. We see increased longevity and the resulting changing life patterns as opportunities for our customers, our employees, and society.
As recently as the late 20th century, life consisted of three stages: approximately 20 years of education, 40 years of work, and a short retirement of 15 to 20 years. Since then, life expectancy has increased around the world. This means we need to rethink what a life should look like: when we study, work, take career breaks, and switch careers. The idea of a standard path no longer applies: there are as many options as there are lives.
Longer lives bring new challenges. But the old associations with aging – of frailty and inactivity – are often being replaced by the expectation that the years after 60 can be the most rewarding.
Across all our markets, people are looking for companies that will support them in living longer, more varied lives, while also contributing towards a better world. At Aegon, we aim to do this by offering products and services through our various businesses that support society’s transition from the traditional three-stage life to a multi-stage one, so that people from all walks of life can make the most of their lives. That is why we are guided and united by a single, clear purpose: Helping people live their best lives.
