7% employee growth in 12 months

Our take

Assurance believes in the symbiosis between humans and machines and has built the most advanced technology and data science systems to support the human touch. It uses these systems to match prospective customers with custom health, life, Medicare, and auto insurance plans that can be bought online or through an agent.

In 2019, Prudential Financial acquired Assurance, a deal worth $2.35B, which was expected to significantly expand the market for both companies. Together, the companies have been creating a new end-to-end engagement model to better serve their respective customers

However, it was recently reported that this deal did not live up to Prudential’s expectations, having missed financial targets. Regardless, Assurance recently appointed a new CEO, who the company believes will make strides in its mission.
