John Hancock Life Insurance

The John Hancock Financial Opportunities brand is used to sell a range of products. Life insurance plans, on the other hand, are the company’s bread and butter, as everyone knows. The company has been in continuous operation since its establishment in Boston, Massachusetts. Manulife Financial, a Canadian corporation, purchased it in 2004. Rather than just acquiring John Hancock, this new parent business decided to incorporate the John Hancock brand into its own. Manulife Financial is a Canadian company located in Toronto that employs roughly 34,000 people and has 63,000 agents.

Sotheby’s

A Chinese life insurance company piqued the curiosity of a New York City art broker. Sotheby’s has been in business in London since 1744. Prior to expanding internationally, it did open a location in New York City. Sotheby’s has a new majority shareholder: Taikang Life Insurance Co. Ltd. of China. That was the case until 2019, when Sotheby’s was purchased by Patrick Drahi, a French-Israeli billionaire. However, we have no idea what will happen to the corporation’s 13.5 percent interest held by a Chinese insurance company.
