Prudential Financial wants to make sure its position near the top of the life insurance summit is set in stone. Prudential, known for its Rock of Gibraltar logo, is one of the top US life insurers and also one of the largest life insurance companies worldwide. The firm is perhaps best known for its individual life insurance, though it also sells group life and disability insurance, as well as annuities. Prudential also offers investment products and services, including asset management services, mutual funds, and retirement planning. In Asia, the company operates through its Gibraltar Life Insurance unit. Prudential has some $1.2 trillion in assets under management.
