Assicurazioni Generali said Thursday that it has acquired asset
manager Conning Holdings from Cathay Life and has entered into a
partnership with the latter.
The Italian insurer said the acquisition will increase its
assets under management to $845 billion and reinforce its Asset
Management division's strategy. Asset Management will become a
global provider of investment solutions with a combined platform of
$709 billion in assets under management, according to Generali.
Cathay Life will become a minority shareholder of Generali
Investments Holding, which includes the majority of Generali's
asset management activities, the insurer said.
Cathay Life is expected to hold 16.75% of the share capital of
Generali Investments Holding at the closing of the transaction.
Cathay Life will then enter into an asset-management agreement with
Generali for a minimum of ten years, the company said.
