- Wednesday, April 10, 7:09 AM MetLife (MET) takes the offensive in the debate over financial regulations, arguing that the company shouldn't be categorized as a "systemically important financial institution."

- Friday, April 5, 2:23 PM MetLife's (MET -2.8%) sale of two broker-dealers makes sense, says Brian Frank, as it takes the independent advisor - free not to sell Met products and able to take clients when switching firms - out of the equation. "By focusing on their own distribution network ... clients are now exclusively offered MetLife products, which is better for the bottom line." Comment! [Financials]
- Friday, April 5, 10:36 AM Continuing to get back to basics, MetLife (MET) sells brokerage affiliates Tower Square Securities and Walnut Street Securities to Cetera Advisor Networks for an undisclosed sum. The two combined had about $25B in AUM as of the end of 2012. (PR) Comment! [Financials]

- Friday, March 22, 12:21 PM MetLife (MET) CEO Steven Kandarian received $13.7M in pay, bonus, and stock options last year, the board citing "strong operational performance" and the "development of company strategy."

The investors - the state of Arizona, AllianceBernstein (AB), Lloyds (LYG), MetLife (MET) and Pimco - argued that as placement agent, CS should have known about the fraud.

The firm continues to cut costs, planning to move 2.6K workers out of CA, MA, and NJ, and into NC. 1 Comment [Financials, On the Move]

- Thursday, February 14, 2:58 PM "Regulatory uncertainty" has MetLife (MET -1.7%) assuming zero share repurchases in 2013, and has CEO Steve Kandarian no longer confident (CC transcript) of previous guidance of $8B in buybacks through 2016.
