Our Approach

With our purpose at our core—Always with you, building a more confident future—sustainability at MetLife means sustaining people’s lives. 

Sustainability is central to our business strategy and is ingrained across our operations. With the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs) as a guide, we are deploying the full strength of our people, products, services and investments to sustain our customers, our colleagues, our communities and our shareholders. 

We demonstrate our commitment through the security we provide to customers by paying claims during times of need, our activities and investments in the communities we serve, and the long-term investments we make in the broader economy.

Sustaining people’s lives is what we do—and it has been this way since MetLife opened for business in 1868.
