Commenting on the numbers, Manulife president & chief executive Roy Gori said: “2023 was a milestone year for Manulife as we continued to execute on our transformation journey. We delivered strong business results of 17% and 13% growth year-over-year in core EPS (earnings per common share) and core earnings, respectively, as well as core ROE (return on common shareholders’ equity) of 15.9% in 2023.
“We generated core earnings growth across all insurance segments, double-digit increases in all new business metrics, and CA$4.5 billion of net inflows in global WAM (wealth and asset management). We also announced a milestone reinsurance transaction, including the largest ever LTC (long-term care) risk transfer.
“Our strategy is grounded in making decisions easier and lives better for our customers and driving greater value for our shareholders. The dedication and passion of our team to deliver has helped us excel in uncertain market conditions and achieve positive momentum as we begin 2024.”
