Smart choices
Your options for later start with smart choices now, whether this relates to a mortgage, insurance, or your pension.
This is the central message of the new a brand campaign launched by Aegon's Dutch business. Sung as a spoken-word manifesto by singer and producer Eva Emme, the campaign tells the life story of a man. We see him in a large space where there are various life-size frames that feature people and situations that have played, or could play a role in his life. He walks from one frame to the next, illustrating how life can take several turns and how each turn requires thinking ahead and making choices.
The campaign is running on Dutch television, online and on social media. While the song is in Dutch, the video below has English subtitles, and the theme is universally relevant.
