TheMillerGroup recently hosted Kenneth Farrugia, Chief Executive Officer of Bank of Valletta, for a visit that highlighted the strengthening relationship between the two organisations.
Farrugia was welcomed by Emma Sullivan, Chief Executive Officer of TheMillerGroup, together with Kenneth Frendo, CFO, and Kristina Galea, HR & Administration Manager.
The visit followed TheMillerGroup’s recent take up of a Voluntary Occupational Pension Scheme (VOPS) through Bank of Valletta.
The meeting provided an opportunity for open discussion around TheMillerGroup’s business journey, its people-first approach, and the role of tailored financial solutions in supporting sustainable growth.
The VOPS Pension Scheme is a voluntary retirement savings plan designed to support long-term financial planning for employees and complement the state pension.
It allows participating employees to make regular contributions from their monthly earnings, which are then matched by the employer up to an amount of its choice.
VOPS is manufactured by MAPFRE, a leading international insurance group, and distributed by Bank of Valletta.
Commenting on the visit, Sullivan said, “Introducing VOPS is one more way that we are investing in our people and their future. It was a pleasure to welcome Mr Farrugia and his team and to have meaningful discussions on how this collaboration with Bank of Valletta can continue to add value to our employees and our business.”
Farrugia noted the importance of partnerships built on understanding and shared values. “It is always encouraging to work with organisations like TheMillerGroup, an organisation that places real importance on their people. It was indeed a privilege for us to support TheMillerGroup in setting up this scheme. Through solutions such as VOPS, we aim to support employers in offering meaningful benefits that translate into greater employee financial wellbeing.”
Farrugia was accompanied by members of Bank of Valletta’s Corporate Finance team, as well as members from the Insurance and Pensions Unit, and Kenneth B Micallef from the Bank’s Business Development.
The visit reaffirmed the strong working relationship between TheMillerGroup and Bank of Valletta, built on trust, dialogue, and a shared commitment to investing in people and future-focused growth.
