Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance Co.'s retirement plan business posted a record year in 2014, as sales rose 23 percent to $9.1 billion, the company announced.
MassMutual's overall 2014 income was $799 million, compared to a net loss of $113 million in 2013, which was largely explained by the Springfield, Massachusetts-based company's acquisition of The Hartford Retirement Plans, completed in 2013, for $400 million.
That purchase pushed assets under management in MassMutual's Retirement Services Division to nearly $120 billion, nearly double what they were prior to the deal, and added 1.5 million participants in more than 33,000 plans. Today, MassMutual's retirement division serves about 2.8 million participants, according to a statement.
