Canadian insurance giant Sun Life Financial is cutting some 800 U.S. jobs,
with roughly half of the layoffs hitting the firm’s American headquarters
in Wellesley.
“It’s fair to say that the vast majority of the impacts will be in the
Boston area,” Sun Life spokesman Frank Switzer told the Herald, saying the
firm will cut some 400 jobs in Wellesley, Boston and Portsmouth, N.H.
Sun Life CEO Dean Connor announced the layoffs today as part of a plan to “
reposition” the Toronto-based firm.
He said Sun Life, which also owns Boston-based MFS Investment Management,
will stop selling variable annuities and individual life insurance policies
in the United States on Dec. 30.
The company will instead focus its U.S. business on offering large insurance
policies to employers, as well as on offering add-on products like dental
insurance that employees pay extra for.
“Today begins a new chapter in the history of Sun Life Financial,” Connor
said.
Switzer said Sun Life is shaking up its business because today’s low
interest-rate environment makes variable annuities hard to profitably sell.
He said eliminating variable annuities in turn makes selling individual life
-insurance policies no longer viable.
John Hancock Financial Services, owned by Canada’s Manulife, announced
plans last month to downsize its variable-annuities business, cutting 116
jobs in Boston.
Sun Life has already told some affected employees that they’re losing their
jobs, with others set to get pink slips in the next few weeks or months.
However, Switzer said the company plans to retain its Wellesley campus,
which currently has some 2,650 employees.

i am a layman obviously, but my guess would be
the current market condition is bad so the investment does not
warrant profit on the aggregate basis

bad pricing, inefficient hedging for VA
bad risk management.
And
Market is crowded and competition is fierce.
