(Reuters) – Canada’s Sun Life Financial (NYSE:) Inc reported a rise in first-quarter profit on Thursday as strong insurance sales in the United States market outweighed weakness in its asset management unit.
The company posted underlying net income of C$895 million ($669.31 million), or C$1.52 per share, for the three months ended March 31, compared with C$720 million, or C$1.23 per share, a year earlier.
