May 27, 2026 by Allison Bell
Pacific Guardian Life, a subsidiary of Meiji Yasuda Life, is acquiring the individual annuity business of another, bigger Meiji Yasuda subsidiary, Standard Insurance Company.
Meiji Yasuda is a big, Tokyo-based insurer. It acquired Pacific Guardian Life in 1985 and The Standard in 2016.
The Standard is handing the individual annuity business over to Pacific Guardian Life because it wants to focus on its investment and employee benefits businesses, according to Dan McMillan, the company’s chief executive officer.
