‘VM Group is the pulse of Jamaica’

Impacting Jamaica

The VM Group is committed to working for the benefit of all its members, declared CEO of VM Pension Management Limited, Mr. Conroy Rose. “We thrive on helping people to achieve financial wellbeing,” he emphasised. “We are driven by the need to serve our members…and that is the fundamental driving force that VM is driven by.” Looking at the pension situation in Jamaica, Mr. Rose noted that less than 10 per cent of the working population is a member of a retirement scheme. “You know what are the implications of this? When persons reach the age of retirement it is highly likely that many persons are going to be a burden on their loved ones or possibly a burden on the State,” he pointed out. Mr Rose implored workers, including the self-employed, to get on board and begin the process to save for retirement, noting the earlier persons begin, the better. “We are on a drive to educate Jamaicans about the importance of a pension plan,” he stated. The VM executive shared what the Group has to offer workers and members in this episode of Impacting Jamaica with host Keisha Hill.
