Zurich Financial Services Group is expanding its global life business segment in the U.S. market.

This will be the first time since 2003 that life insurance products will be sold under the Zurich brand name in the U.S.  Zurich Global Life in North America will have initially two U.S. market offerings: 1) Affluent markets and 2) corporate life and pensions.

"The decision to further life insurance products and services in the U.S. is viewed as a constructive element of Zurich's global initiative to be the best insurance provider worldwide as measured by our customers, employees and shareholders," said Zurich Global Life CEO Kevin Hogan. --Tanya Irwin
