What this company does

Prudential Financial, Inc. ("Prudential Financial" or "PFI"), a global financial services leader and premier active global investment manager with approximately $1.609 trillion of assets under management as of December 31, 2025, has operations in the United States, Asia, Europe and Latin America. Through our subsidiaries and affiliates we offer a wide array of financial products and services, including life insurance, annuities, retirement-related products and services, mutual funds and investment management. We offer these products and services to individual and institutional customers through proprietary and third-party distribution networks. Our principal executive offices are located in Newark, New Jersey, and Prudential Financial’s Common Stock is publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol "PRU."

On December 18, 2001, The Prudential Insurance Company of America ("PICA") converted from a mutual life insurance company owned by its policyholders to a stock life insurance company and became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Prudential Financial. The demutualization was carried out under PICA’s Plan of Reorganization, which required us to establish and operate a regulatory mechanism known as the "Closed Block." The Closed Block includes certain in-force participating insurance and annuity products and corresponding assets that are used for the payment of benefits and policyholders’ dividends on these products, as well as certain related assets and liabilities.

Our principal operations consist of PGIM (our global investment management business), our U.S. Businesses (consisting of our Retirement Strategies, Group Insurance and Individual Life businesses), our International Businesses, the Closed Block division and our Corporate and Other operations. The Closed Block division is accounted for as a divested business that is reported separately from the Divested and Run-off Businesses that are included in Corporate and Other. Divested and Run-off Businesses are composed of businesses that have been, or will be, sold or exited, including businesses that have been placed in wind-down status that do not qualify for "discontinued operations" accounting treatment under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"). Our Corporate and Other operations include corporate items and initiatives that are not allocated to business segments as well as the Divested and Run-off Businesses described above. See Note 23 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for revenues, income and loss, and total assets by segment.

In September 2023, we, together with Warburg Pincus and a group of institutional investors, launched Prismic Life Reinsurance, Ltd. ("Prismic Re"), a licensed Bermuda-based life and annuity reinsurance company. Through our Corporate and Other operations, we own an approximate 20% equity interest in Prismic Life Holding Company LP ("Prismic"), the Bermuda-exempted limited partnership that owns all of the outstanding capital stock of Prismic Re and Prismic Life Reinsurance International, Ltd. ("Prismic Re International"). We expect the increased reinsurance capacity that this partnership provides to support our vision of expanding access to investing, insurance, and retirement security for people around the world. See Note 15 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding our transactions with Prismic Re and Prismic Re International.
