It was listed on the Amsterdam Stock Exchange in the 1980s and now has mature operations in the United States, the United Kingdom, and four growth markets of Brazil, China, Portugal, and Spain. Over recent years, Aegon has been moving through an extensive transformation program where management has sought to divest noncore operations and improve the risk profile of the business. Financial assets are the parts of the company that are now being run off. Aegon is looking to cycle out of capital-consumptive and volatile earnings products and recycle funds into capital-light and more predictable strategic businesses.
