Zurich Nears $4 Billion Deal for MetLife Unit
Zurich Nears $4 Billion Deal for MetLife Unit
According to Reuters, Zurich is in advanced talks to acquire MetLife’s car and home insurance unit for close to $4 billion

In Q3, MetLife reported a 68% drop compared to the prior year period at its U.S. property and casualty division to $18 million, which was driven by “unfavorable underwriting margins due to higher catastrophe losses.”

In an earnings call from earlier this month, MetLife CEO Michel Khalaf said that the P&C business had an “important strategic connection” to the group business, but he declined to comment on “any potential rumors.”

The deal, if comes to life, is planned to be executed through Zurich’s Farmers Group subsidiary.
