Description: UNM Unum January 03, 2026
Unum Group (NYSE: UNM) and its subsidiaries deliver employer-sponsored financial protection benefits across the United States, United Kingdom, and Poland, operating through four segments: Unum US, Unum International, Colonial Life, and a Closed Block unit. Its product suite spans group long- and short-term disability, group life, accidental death & dismemberment, as well as supplemental voluntary offerings such as individual disability, dental, vision, cancer, and critical-illness coverage. The firm also provides group pension solutions, corporate-owned life policies, reinsurance pools, and related administrative services, selling primarily via field sales teams, independent brokers, consultants, and contractor agents.
Key recent metrics (2023) include total revenue of roughly $13 billion, a combined ratio of 93 % for its disability and life lines, and a return on equity near 10 %. The business is highly sensitive to interest-rate environments-higher rates boost investment income but can increase policy lapse rates-while demographic trends (an aging workforce and rising chronic-illness prevalence) drive demand for supplemental and critical-illness products. Regulatory changes in the U.K. and Poland, particularly around solvency and capital requirements, also shape underwriting profitability.
