PGIM's Prudential Financial affiliation provides the asset management business with the institutional stability, insurance company perspective, and long-term investment orientation of one of America's most financially sound insurance companies, whose management of $1.4 trillion in insurance general account assets creates a natural partnership with the PGIM investment management business. According to pgim.com, Prudential's insurance company heritage — including over 145 years of serving policyholders with long-term financial obligations — informs PGIM's investment culture of long-term thinking, careful risk management, and genuine client stewardship that distinguishes it from asset managers without insurance company ownership. PGIM's combination of $1.3 trillion in AUM, comprehensive fixed income leadership, multi-asset investment platform, real estate investment management expertise, and Prudential Financial institutional backing establishes it as one of the most significant and broadly capable investment management organizations in the world.
