Company Overview

Genworth Financial, Inc. is an insurance holding company headquartered in Richmond, Virginia. The company’s primary business is U.S. mortgage insurance, which helps lenders manage credit risk and enables eligible homebuyers to purchase homes with down payments below traditional requirements. This business operates through Enact Holdings, Inc., a publicly traded subsidiary in which Genworth remains a significant shareholder.

Genworth also manages a substantial portfolio of long-term care insurance policies, providing benefits that may help cover nursing care, assisted living, home health care and other extended-care services. In addition, the company administers legacy life insurance and annuity policies, although it has substantially reduced new sales of these products and focuses mainly on servicing existing policyholders.

Founded in 1871 as The Life Insurance Company of Virginia, Genworth became part of General Electric before being separated as an independent public company in 2004. Its current operations are concentrated primarily in the United States, with mortgage insurance, long-term care insurance and related policy-administration activities forming the core of its business.
