MetLife Global Impact 2018 Corporate Responsibility Report

At MetLife, we see our role as building a more protected world in a time of unprecedented change.

The company’s commitment to corporate responsibility is integral to this core business purpose. We deliver on this commitment in many ways: through the security we provide customers, the claims we pay during their times of need, our activities in the communities that we serve, and long-term investments in the broader economy. Our goal is to responsibly deliver long-term value for all stakeholders as we navigate life together.
