Sun Life CEO on baby boomers, mental wellbeing, and a big change
The COVID-19 pandemic drove a shift in how people understand the relationship between their health, both physical and mental, and their financial wellbeing, according to Sun Life president and CEO Kevin Strain (pictured), who joined Insurance Business to share why pandemic impacts led the more than 150-year-old life insurer to take a fresh approach to health and wellness.
“COVID has been an incredibly challenging and impactful period for everyone, and it’s made us all more aware of our health, the importance of staying healthy and the importance of insurance to be there when we’re not healthy,” Strain said. “COVID accelerated that understanding that we can get sick, and if we get sick it has impacts on our financial security.”
