AXA in Talks to Sell Most of UK Life Insurance & Wealth Investment Units: Sources
AXA SA, France’s largest insurer, is in talks to sell most of its U.K. life-insurance and wealth-investments units, according to two people with knowledge of the matter.
AXA is likely to sell parts of the businesses, known collectively as AXA Wealth, to separate bidders in deals that may raise 500 million pounds ($715 million) to 700 million pounds, said the people, who asked not to be identified because the information is private.
AXA may reach agreements on the sales by the end of this month as it streamlines the U.K. units. The Paris-based company is also in talks with other bidders to sell SunLife, a U.K. business that provides life-insurance and funeral-costs coverage for people at age 50 or more, and investment-fund activities on the Isle of Man, the people said.
A spokesman for AXA declined to comment when reached by phone.
