Abstract

Life and health insurance companies should voluntarily divest their investments in tobacco companies because such a move benefits the public, their policyholders and themselves. The public records of 33 insurance companies show they hold $4.5 billion in tobacco investments. A telephone survey of 10 companies, conducted in April and May 1996, found that only one company, Aetna Life Insurance & Annuity Co, does not hold tobacco investments in its actively managed accounts. Six of the 10 make tobacco investments based solely on financial considerations.
