ProVida Visual Guidelines
The Brand:
Introduction
MetLife values our reputation as being financially
strong, trustworthy and easy to do business with.
Here, in the ProVida Visual Guidelines, you’ll find
how we’ll make our communications consistently
look, sound and feel like a MetLife company.
ProVida is the MetLife mark in use by our pensions
business in Chile. These guidelines for using
ProVida are aligned with the MetLife enterprise
identity standards. This ensures that no matter
which MetLife brand name is being used from our
brand architecture (MetLife, MetLife Alico, MetLife
Amplico, Metropolitan Life, ProVida), we will convey
a consistent look, feel and tone to all materials
developed.
This document gives guidance on the core parts
of our marketing and communications activities. If
you have any questions, or feel you need additional
advice or guidance, please contact the Global Brand
and Marketing department.

ProVida Visual Guidelines
We make sure that the benefits
of a product or offering are clear
to the customer.
While we are financial experts, our
customers may not be. Therefore,
we do not use jargon. Clear
language helps create trust.
We are optimistic, offering
solutions, not problems. We do not
use scare tactics.
The Brand:
Writing Principles
Together, graphics and copy help communicate that
ProVida is caring, inventive, motivating, optimistic,
professional and dependable. The words we use
are as important as the way we look. Given that we
speak in many languages and to various cultures,
we, as a global brand, must be sensitive to the
differences across the many societies in which we do
business. But wherever we do business, ProVida is
clear, consistent and correct.
•We make sure that the benefits of a product or
offering are clear to the customer.
•While we are financial experts, our customers
may not be. Therefore, we do not use jargon.
Clear language helps create trust.
•We are optimistic, offering solutions, not
problems. We do not use scare tactics.
Of course, different situations will demand different
types of language. Think about who you are talking
to in each piece of communication. Your message
should focus on the specific need of the audience.
A good way to test copy is to read it aloud. Does
it flow easily as you speak it? It should be friendly,
informative, clever and well-organized.

Writing Principles
Make it easy for the customer to:
Scan
Understand
Act
Customers need to know right away why they
received a communication.
Customers need to understand their benefits and
how to use them.
Customers need to know what to do next.
We do this by:
We do this by:
We do this by:
• Prioritizing the key message
• Structuring information in a logical order
• Writing how a customer would speak
• Providing a clear call to action
• Finding the appropriate tone
• Emphasizing the right information
• Using clear and intuitive headings and subheadings
• Defining and explaining complicated terms and
concepts
• Providing clear contact information
• Supporting messages with charts, tables and
infographics
• Using visual cues such as the action icon
• Anticipating questions and proactively addressing
any issues
These writing principles are abridged from a more
expansive guideline that is specific to the writing and
organizing of content. These are included here as
foundation to the design principles.
Note: Guidelines on global brand voice, personality
and messaging are accessible on the MetLife Brand
Center.

ProVida Visual Guidelines
The Basic Design Elements:
Logo
The ProVida name as expressed in the logo is
the single most important visual component in
establishing the brand presence. Our logo is a clear,
strong, timeless presentation of our name.
Clear Space
Using the appropriate amount of space around our
logo will help create a positive impression and impact.
A minimum amount of clear space must always
surround the ProVida logo, separating it from other
elements such as headlines, text or imagery.
Clear space
The protected area is equal to the cap height of the
ProVida “P” and is proportional to the size of the logo
being used.
Minimum size 1p3 pica
Minimum Size
Careful consideration should be given when
determining the size of the ProVida logo. When it is
too small it can be ineffective. The minimum size for
the logo should be 1p3 pica (5.3mm) for the height of
the “P” in ProVida.
This size should be applied to
only the smallest of applications
such as business cards where
space is at a premium.
Color
Color
The preferred color for the ProVida logo is Pantone
285. Acceptable alternatives are for the logo to be
reversed out in white or reproduced in black.
Do not use the logo in any other color.
PMS 285

C = 89
M = 43
Y=0

R=0
G = 106
B = 182
Note: The ProVida logo should include the “SM”
service mark.

Specific Prohibitions
To maintain the integrity and clarity of our brand, do
not modify the ProVida mark in any way or associate
it with conflicting elements. At left are some examples
of executions that are prohibited.
Do Not:
• knock out the logo through images or any
color other than black or PMS 285
• confine the logo in any shape or box other
than the identity band
• outline the logo
• color the logo other than PMS 285,
Black or White
• use multiple colors
• use gradients
• alter the relationship of ProVida to MetLife

Identity Band
It is important for the identity band to maintain
consistent placement and proportions across
communications. The identity band is primarily used
on brochures, folders and other multipage documents.
It is preferred for use for single page communications
if content space allows for it. Where space does not
allow, see the standard for Signature/Slug on page 11.

Snoopy’s size should be 3.5x the “P”. The white of
Snoopy’s feet should be aligned with the baseline of
the ProVida logo.
For desktop printing or electronic delivery
formats (i.e., PDF) shorten the identity band on
the left side by 1x.

For a standard A4 brochure (with a portrait orientation),

Identity Band
Use the tables below to determine the appropriate
band size for other proportions. In all cases, to
establish the proper placement, the band should be
placed four band heights from the top of the page, as
shown on page 9.
Note: A poster’s structure is inverted to give emphasis
to the image area with the identity band and logo as
a signature.
ProVida’s identity band guidelines were established
around picas as a unit of measure.

The Basic Design Elements:
Color
Always allow white space for balancing the page and
for ease of readability. Application of color should
be well considered, compliment photos and aid the
reader’s understanding of visual data. Using PMS 285,
and one additional color (as well as black) can create
a comfortable visual rhythm while adding too many
colors can create visual chaos. Using tints and shades
(adding white or black) of the secondary palette is
acceptable.
Note: PMS 200 (red) should be used sparingly as it
can overwhelm the page.

The Basic Design Elements:
Typography
Preferred Standard
MetLife typefaces for branded print communications
(advertising and product collateral) are the Frutiger
and Minion families. Every effort should be made
to maintain brand consistency across all customer
touch-points using the preferred typefaces. It is
strongly recommended that vendors, business units
or individuals who regularly create professional
communications on our behalf aquire the proper
typefaces from the proper source.
Frutiger
Frutiger is a contemporary, approachable sans
serif typeface. It is flexible, as it is available in italic,
condensed and a variety of weights.
AQUIRE IT HERE: http://store1.adobe.com/cfusion/store/html/index.
cfm?store=OLS-US&event=displayFontPackage&code=1762
Minion
Minion is a classic serif typeface that complements
Frutiger. While Frutiger is approachable, Minion
suggests trust. Minion is available in italic and a variety
of weights. Like Frutiger, Minion is easy to read and
flexible.

Note: Many different providers offer typefaces with
the same name. They do not, however, have the same
characteristics and can cause serious font software
conflicts. Only use the fonts properly purchased from
Adobe.

The Basic Design Elements:
Typography
Minimum Standard
Arial and Times New Roman should be used for
desktop users and admin personnel who create
communications developed in e-mails and Microsoft
Office applications, and for whom acquiring Frutiger
and Minion is impractical. These fonts, while less
desirable than Frutiger or Minion, represent a
minimum standard that is not burdensome as they are
pre-installed on all PC and Mac computers.
Arial
Arial is a utilitarian sans serif typeface. When Frutiger
is not available it is acceptable to substitute it with
Arial.
Times New Roman
Times New Roman is a utilitarian serif typeface. When
Minion is not available it is acceptable to substitute it
with Times New Roman.
Note: When creating communications in Microsoft
Office or e-mail applications regardless of the font
you use, the display of that information will be
driven by the end users available fonts. Therefore, if
the communication is intended to be distributed for
reading and not for editing it is better to save and
send it as a PDF which will retain all its formatting
characteristics.

ProVida Visual Guidelines
The Basic Design Elements:
Photography
Photography
The MetLife image style is a particularly important way
of reflecting our personality. Keep the following in
mind while selecting imagery:
• Cover images should be light and bright with an
open, uncluttered feeling of space. Interesting crops
and dynamic angles reinforce a leading and agile
point of view. Be sure that the subject matter is
crisply in focus.
• The color and tonality of images used should
complement the attributes demonstrated by the
MetLife color palette. Natural lighting and colors are
best for demonstrating these attributes.
• Photography is the recommended imagery for
ProVida communications. However, it is important
to recognize that not all communications require the
use of imagery. Typography and color can also be
effectively used to convey core brand messages.
• Photographs of people can be very effective. As
we have demonstrated, however, it is not always
necessary to use the entire body or even the face of
an individual when suggesting the human aspect.
• When choosing photographs of people, look for
realistic interpretations of situations rather than
images that are posed or staged. Images should
connect and involve the viewers, and communicate
that ProVida understands its customers.
Note: The Image Library is a resource for images that
are pre-approved, royalty free, and on-brand. The

Consumers
Dynamic lifestyle images are used when
communicating with our consumer audiences.
People are positive and optimistic, engaging in an
active lifestyle appropriate to specific products or
campaigns. Images should reflect your local market
where appropriate. Images should look real, not overly
posed or staged.
Agents, Brokers and Partners
Committed professional images are used when
communicating with our corporate audiences.
We show people reflecting our culture and
personality. They should appear practical, dedicated
and hardworking. People are captured in action and
wearing relaxed business attire. Images should reflect
your local market where appropriate. Images should
look real, not overly posed or staged.
Wealth Management
Seek to use bigger worldview images to depict
cityscapes shot from wide angles and to demonstrate
the broader global outlook of our business.

Snoopy
Snoopy serves as an ambassador for MetLife, and

sends a powerful and positive visual signal.
The pose shown here, Ambassador Snoopy, has
been selected as the corporate icon that is used
in combination with the ProVida logo (e.g., in the
identity band).
Snoopy may be used in other poses as an illustration
to convey specific messages, used alone or with the
other Peanuts characters. Please keep in mind that
Snoopy cannot interact with himself, therefore do
not use more than one Snoopy pose within the same

The FIRsT sTep:
lump sum distribution
An Overview
Do you own company
stock in your company
retirement plans?
Many employers offer company stock as an investment
option in their qualified benefit plans. As a result, when
a large component of an employee’s 401(k) (or other
qualified plan) is made up of company stock that is
highly appreciated from the original cost basis, rolling
that stock into an IRA may not be the best course
of action. There is a strategy called Net Unrealized
Appreciation, under IRC 402(e) (4), which could help
you benefit from potential tax advantages.
What is Net Unrealized Appreciation?
2013
Calendar of
Events
As a simple definition, Net Unrealized Appreciation
(NUA) is the difference between the market value
of the shares at the time of distribution and their
corresponding cost basis. The NUA strategy allows you
to pay ordinary income taxes on the cost basis of the
shares at the time of distribution, and defer all tax on
the appreciation until the shares are actually sold. Then,
the Net Unrealized Appreciation is taxed at long-term
capital gains rates and any appreciation generated after
distribution is taxed at the applicable capital gains rate
based on the holding period. Clearly, this strategy works
best when the market value of the stock at distribution
is significantly higher than the average cost basis.
292586_L01.indd 1
Example 1
The lump sum distribution is the distribution or payment of the employee’s
entire account balance from all qualified plans of the same type sponsored
by the employer, which becomes payable:
a. On account of an employee’s (other than a self-employed individual)
separation from service
Do Not:
b. On account of death
c. After a self-employed individual has become disabled (as defined by
the tax law)
d. After attainment of age 59½
To employ the NUA strategy, employees with highly appreciated company
stock in their 401(k) or other qualified retirement plan will only qualify if all
of the assets are distributed within a calendar year. No balance can be left
(including all other investments) or the entire amount distributed becomes
2
taxable at ordinary income tax rates.
The seCONd sTep:
transfer the shares to a non-qualified account
The NUA strategy requires an employee to pay ordinary income tax on the cost
basis of company stock at the time of distribution. To do this, the shares must
be directly transferred from the employer plan to a taxable account. This is an
in-kind distribution of the shares, not cash to the employee. The other assets
and investments can be rolled income tax-deferred into an IRA.

The ThIRd sTep:
pay long-term capital gains tax on the NUA at time of sale
After the shares are distributed and held in a non-qualified brokerage
account, a new holding period begins. At the time of sale, the net unrealized
appreciation is taxed as a long-term capital gain. Additional appreciation
above the NUA will be taxed as short- or long-term capital gains, depending
on how long the client held the shares following distribution from the plan.

The Basic Design Elements:
Snoopy
Snoopy
The relationship of Peanuts characters to the ProVida
logo itself is extremely important. The pose shown
here, Ambassador Snoopy, is the only pose that is
used in combination with any ProVida logo (e.g.,
in the identity band). Using this pose in the context
of the identity band is the preferred relationship. The
attachment of Snoopy (and/or other character) to the
logo diminishes both brands.
When the identity band is not appropriate, the
minimum acceptable space between the logo and
Ambassador Snoopy is 2.5 times the “P” height of the
ProVida logo. Do not lock up any Peanuts characters
with the logo.
Do Not:
• create any direct interaction between any Peanuts character and the ProVida logo.

Peanuts Copyright, Usage and Approval
MetLife companies use Snoopy through an agreement
with Peanuts Worldwide. Our agreement states that
all uses of Snoopy and Peanuts characters must be
approved in advance by Peanuts Worldwide. The
agreement also states that copyright credit must
always be assigned to Snoopy or any of the other
Peanuts characters. One of the three options featured
here must be used at all times. On large, two-sided
applications, such as brochures and pocket folders,
Snoopy should be used with the copyright notice,
“PEANUTS © [Year] Peanuts Worldwide,” included
elsewhere in the document (e.g., the back cover) and
must appear on one line.
On smaller applications or one-sided collateral, it is
acceptable to use Snoopy with a concise copyright
notice, “© [Year] Peanuts” or “© PNTS” in the least
obtrusive location on the piece in type 6 points or
smaller.
Note: All uses of Snoopy and other Peanuts
characters must be sourced from the Peanuts art bank
and submitted to MetLife Global Brand and Peanuts
Worldwide for approval.
On small applications it is acceptable to
use “© [Year] Peanuts”.
On extremely small applications it is
acceptable to use “© PNTS”.

There are several options with regard to the way an
image can occupy the cover. From full coverage top
to bottom (so long as the image doesn’t break at the
identity band in a disconcerting manner) to using only
a portion of the available space. As long as the image
respects the underlying grid, the proportions should
create pleasing and balanced arrangements.
Header typography color should be of significant
color contrast. The background imagery should not
interfere with the legibility of the header information.

Co-branding
There are often business or legal requirements that
suggest or dictate the use of third party logos, for
reasons such as a joint offering, partnership, or an
endorsement.
ProVida Superior
Third-party logos of subsidiaries and partners are
clearly subordinated to the ProVida logo and should
be placed in a way that they compete as little as
possible with the ProVida logo. The other logo should
be placed in the lower right corner of the brochure,
in a size approximately 50% of the ProVida logo.
The ProVida logo with Snoopy should appear in the
identity band in its standard position.
ProVida Equal
The ProVida logo should not appear in the identity
band, but should be rendered in MetLife Blue (or
other acceptable color) and aligned with the other
company’s (or companies’) logos at the bottom corner
of the brochure. Preferable placement is for the
ProVida logo to appear in the lower right of the page.
ProVida Subordinate
In instances where the ProVida logo is subordinate to
another company’s logo, the preferred positioning is
the lower right hand corner of the page.

ProVida enterprise stationery plays an important
role in communicating the ProVida brand image.
Our stationery communicates a clear, unified and
consistent image.
This page features the standard corporate A4
letterhead shown at 60% of the actual size.
When letterhead is used in customer correspondence,
it is recommended that the legal name of the
company from which the correspondence is issued be
used in the address line. This will facilitate customer
recognition when the standard double window
envelope is used.
Dear Jane Smith,
You’ve taken an important step in providing financial stability for yourself and your loved ones.
We’re happy you chose MetLife as your partner in meeting your insurance needs for today and
your future.
Please review your policy carefully
This is a level premium non-participating whole life insurance policy. Premiums are payable
for a specified period. In the first two policy years, the Policy provides a limited benefit for a
non-accidental death and a full benefit for an Accidental Death. In the third policy year and
beyond the full Face Amount will be used to determine the Policy Proceeds. If the Insured dies
while the Policy is in force, we will pay the Policy Proceeds to the Beneficiary. We must receive
due proof of the Insured’s death. Any payment will be subject to all of the provisions of the
Policy.
All content shown in this example is for
demonstration purposes only. The requirements
for usage of affiliate names, addresses and phone
numbers, professional designations, footnotes and
required/prohibited terms are complex. Please consult
with your legal department for the requirements
applicable to you.
Right to examine policy
Please read the Policy. You may return the Policy to our Designated Office within 31 days from
the date it was delivered. If you return it within this period, we will refund any premium paid
and the Policy will be void from the start.
The Policy is a legal contract between the Owner and MetLife Investors USA Insurance
Company.
Personalized letterhead is an approved variation.
Telephone and fax numbers are approved options for
business stationery.
This policy has a limited graded death benefit in the first two policy years. Please read your
contract carefully.

The foundation of the ProVida signage program
is the clear presentation of the ProVida name as
represented by the logo. The preferred color for
the ProVida logo is MetLife Blue (Pantone 285).
Acceptable alternatives are for the logo to be in
metallic or reversed out in white.
There may be instances where local regulations or
leasing agreements may dictate the color and size of
signage in a specific location. Such cases should be
addressed on a case-by-case basis.

Aim for consistency
• Limit number of typefaces, colors, type sizes
• Use bold type for emphasis only
• Keep a common visual horizon
• Avoid slides that “jump” during projection
• Make it readable
• If you show it, make sure your audience can read it
• Avoid most animation and special effects
Charts and Graphs
• Label your charts/graphs appropriately
• Use chart effects sparingly, if at all (data is the story
in a graph or chart)
• Make bars and columns wider than the spaces
between them
• Avoid vibrating fill patterns, such as contrasting
lines, wave patterns and crisscrosses
Presentations are speech support, not the speech
• Tell a story
• Keep it simple
• Avoid unnecessary words, graphs and images

you put on the screen

The elements of an e-mail signature are:
• Name
• Title
• Department
• Location or mailing address
• Office phone (including country code, preceded by the “+” symbol)
• Mobile phone (including country code, preceded by the “+” symbol)
• E-mail address
use clip art
add logos or other departmental level marks or artwork
use colored text except to emphasis key information
Your signature should be relevant to your business
function and there should be no attempt to “brand”
your messages with logos, icons, clip art or quotations.
The preferred layout for the signature is to be one
line. If this is not an option, your information should
separate after name, title, department, as seen in the
example.
The proper font for e-mail messages is either Arial or
the Default Sans Serif. Under no circumstances use
highly stylized fonts such as Papyrus, Comic Sans or
Curlz. Its size should be appropriate to the audience.
Generally, 11 pts. is a good reading size for everyone.
Smaller than 7 pts. is illegible and larger than 16 pts.
is uncomfortable to read for most people.
Do Not:
use overly stylized typefaces whose form and size is difficult to read
Just as your business card is a representative of you
and ProVida, your e-mail signature is just as important.
In a global company, the ability to quickly identify the
sender, their role, and alternate means of contact is
critical.

Note: Your signature should be professional and
viewed as an extension of the ProVida brand. It is
recommended for a signature to solely include the
elements above unless local regulation and policy
requires otherwise.
Adding logos and Peanuts imagery runs the risk of
the user distorting, pixelating, misappropriating or
otherwise representing the brand in a less than ideal
manner.
