  • Legal & General stock is up Friday after the company announced a $2.3 billion deal with Meiji Yasuda Life Insurance.

Legal & General Group Plc's stock experienced a significant surge following the announcement of a £1.8 billion ($2.3 billion) deal with Meiji Yasuda Life Insurance Co. Under the agreement, Meiji Yasuda will reinsure approximately 80% of the existing policies from Legal & General's retail protection business, which includes term assurance, critical illness, and income protection products. This transaction, set to close in the first half of 2025, will see Legal & General retain the remaining 20% of the business. The deal not only provides capital benefits to Legal & General but also allows them to focus on growth in other areas of their business. The move was well-received by investors, leading to a notable increase in Legal & General's share price.
