Las Vegas, April 13, 2011 — Yesterday, three senior life insurance executives shared their views on distribution, regulation, risk management and product innovation, and their impact on the future of the life insurance industry to the 550 attendees of the 2011 Life Insurance Conference.   “Middle market will be the growth engine for the future,” said Thomas M.
