One positive aspect of higher interest rates is Manulife will earn a higher rate of return from client deposits that are invested, says CEO Roy Gori From m_zadikian

Governor Tiff Macklem has said the central bank is on pause, as long as the economy unfolds as it expects, but market data now show the odds of yet another rate hike in the summer are increasing. Historically though, Asia, and its expanding middle class, has been a massive source of earnings growth for Canadian life insurance companies.
