Aug 9 (Reuters) - Insurer Suncorp Group Ltd (SUN) said on Thursday it had entered an agreement to sell its life insurance division to a unit of Dai-Ichi Life Holdings 8750.T for A$725 million ($538.82 million), ending more than a year of speculation over a sale it had considered since early 2017.
Completion of the sale is expected to result in an after-tax non-cash loss on sale in fiscal 2019 of approximately A$880 million, Suncorp said in a statement.
