Ranking fourth within the Insurance industry, Manulife recognized for
performance in sustainable revenues and investments

DAVOS, Switzerland, Jan. 17, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Manulife (TSX: MFC) has been
named to the 2024 Corporate Knights Global 100 rankings as one of the world's
most sustainable companies. Now in its 20th year, the Global 100 quantitatively
compares and ranks how the world's largest publicly traded companies embrace
sustainability as part of its strategy, equally emphasizing the impact of a
company's operations along with its core products and services on people and the
planet. The ranking is based on a rigorous assessment of 6,720 companies with
more than US$1 billion in annual gross revenues.  

"When we first introduced our Impact Agenda, we were excited to have a framework
in place to help us continue to build a business capable of meeting the evolving
needs of our customers, our communities, and our environment," said Roy Gori,
Manulife's President and CEO. "As the world continues to experience
geopolitical, environmental, and economic uncertainty, it's important that the
contributions our products and services make to the global economy are guided by
this vision. This honour is a testament to the work our teams do to make
decisions easier and lives better for our more than 34 million customers."

Manulife's performance in the Global 100 assessment was driven largely
through revenues earned from sustainable sources. Through its behavioural
insurance program, Manulife continues to expand the availability of products and
services that empower sustained health and well-being such as Vitality and
ManulifeMOVE, which provide eligible customers access to leading innovations,
like GRAIL's Galleri® multi-cancer early detection test. Through its investment
management arm, the organization has a robust sustainable investment program
through portfolio ESG integration across its public and private market
investments and is the world's largest manager of natural capital with nearly
$15 billion in assets under management in timberland and agriculture combined.

Corporate Knights also recognized Manulife's strong long-term focus on diversity
at the Board and executive management levels, and in connecting sustainability
to compensation and performance. For 2022, 64% of the independent directors on
Manulife's Board self-identified as women1 and 27% of the independent directors
on the Board self-identified as members of a visible minority2. Manulife's full
scorecard is available on the Corporate Knights website.

"As a health and wealth company, we know how important it is to accelerate a
sustainable future and drive inclusive economic opportunity," said Sarah
Chapman, Manulife's Global Chief Sustainability Officer. "Through our Impact
Agenda, we are continuing to address urgent global needs that matter most to our
colleagues, our clients, and the communities we serve. To be named to the Global
100 is an honour, and we remain committed to harnessing our unique strengths and
the diversity of our business to deliver benefits for our business, our people
and our planet."

In addition to being named to this year's Global 100, Manulife has also been
recognized by Corporate Knights as one of Canada's Top 50 Companies for the last
three years. In 2023, Manulife was ranked within approximately the top 2 per
cent of its Financials and Insurance Global Industry Classification
Standard (GICS) sector and industry peer groups, respectively. Manulife's full
scorecard is available on the Corporate Knights website.

More recently, Manulife was one of only eight insurers to be named to this
year's Dow Jones Sustainability North America Index, underscoring Manulife's
leading sustainable business practices and its proven ability to deliver
long-term shareholder value.
