Manulife Financial announced an expansion of its segregated fund lineup and a senior leadership appointment tied to its wealth and asset management business. The insurer added eight new segregated funds and widened access to 11 existing options spanning Canadian, U.S. and global equity, income and ETF based mandates, giving advisors more ways to match guarantees and estate planning features with different risk and return profiles. Sarah Chapman is stepping up to Global Chief Marketing & Customer Experience Officer, a move the company ties to its digital transformation and fee based wealth growth push. Manulife Financial is a CA$103.0b insurance group with operations across Canada, the United States, Asia and other markets. The clearest early test will be how much new business and net flows Manulife reports into segregated funds and related wealth products over the next few reporting periods, particularly in Canada.
