StanCorp Financial Group, Inc., known as The Standard, has successfully concluded its $2 billion acquisition of Allstate’s employer voluntary benefits division, a strategic move first unveiled on August 13, 2024. This landmark deal includes a future distribution partnership, enabling The Standard to offer selected products and services to Allstate’s customer base.

Dan McMillan, president and CEO of The Standard, stated, “This transaction offers a distinctive opportunity to accelerate our growth strategy, providing one of the most comprehensive workplace benefits portfolios available today. We eagerly anticipate embracing Allstate employees and customers into The Standard family.”
This acquisition enhances The Standard’s group benefits division with an approximate $2 billion in enterprise value, expanding its presence in the voluntary benefits arena. It complements existing services in disability, life, dental, vision, and paid leave offerings.
The partnership unites two renowned providers in the workplace benefits industry, enhancing expertise in voluntary benefits and reinforcing a mutual commitment to exceptional customer service.
