Manulife Financial-S (00945.HK) announced that it will hold Investor Day events in Hong Kong and Jakarta at 8:30 am Hong Kong time on June 25th (8:30 pm Eastern Time in Canada on June 24th). During the three-day event, the Manulife leadership team will showcase the company's achievements in implementing strategies, highlight the results of the company's transformation, and explain the basis for its success. A series of discussions during this period will focus on how Manulife can leverage its unique strengths to achieve financial goals, as well as further understand attractive opportunities and strong development trends in its global business.

"Compared with the time of transformation that began in 2017, we are a completely different company today," said Roy Gori, Manulife President and CEO. "We have greatly strengthened the company's foundation through a series of organic and inorganic initiatives, and achieved outstanding performance and overall shareholder returns that lead our peers."

"We are raising the bar, aiming to raise the core ROE target to 18% or higher by 2027. In addition, given our strong ability to generate cash flow, we are introducing a new goal for repatriating funds: we expect to record cumulative repatriated funds of more than 22 billion Canadian dollars by the end of 2027. Not only do I firmly believe that we will have a brighter future, but I am also optimistic about our ability to continue creating value for shareholders."
