About Us

In 2010 Sun Life Global Investments was purpose built to combine the strength of Sun Life with some of the best asset managers in the world. Since then, we’ve become:

  • the fourth largest manager of defined contribution pension assets in Canada1,
  • 16th largest manager of Canadian pension assets2,
  • a trusted wealth management firm for so many - including over $58 billion across a diverse selection of retail mutual funds, insured wealth products, pension funds and other institutional funds3.

We deliver innovative investment solutions for plan members through Sun Life Group Retirement Services. As part of the Sun Life group of companies, we have deep insight into member trends and investment behaviour. This insight gives us the ability to develop investment solutions that may help your members meet their long-term goals.

 

Strength of Sun Life

Sun Life was established in 1865. And since then, it has served Canadians through depressions, wars, financial crises, and even two pandemics.

Sun Life is trusted with more than $1 trillion dollars in assets under management4. With offices in nearly 20 countries, this scale provides a broader global reach. Our insurance roots mean we have a strong risk-management culture, enabling us to manage the risks that concern investors today.

What sets Sun Life Global Investments apart?

Simplifying investment decisions for plan members:

  • Broad holistic offering of investment solutions to meet the diverse needs of plan members
  • Automating the accumulation journey with industry-leading target date funds
  • Automating retirement income solutions through a revolutionary new category: target age solutions

 

What sets apart our Multi-Asset Solutions?

  • We have a broad opportunity set

    Our open architecture approach means we are not limited to proprietary or sub-advisory solutions. We can select the best investment solutions around the world across any asset class, any region and any manager.

  • We challenge the status quo

    We continually assess and work to improve the risk/reward profile of our portfolios. In today’s complex market, you can’t wait years for an in-depth review – you must adapt and evolve on a regular basis to reflect structural market changes.

  • We seek multiple sources of returns

    Increased longevity and a low interest rate environment means the future of many plan members could be underfunded. Solving the retirement gap requires more than a single strategy – which is why we seek multiple sources of returns.
