REUTERS/Chris Helgren Acquire Licensing RightsNov 13 (Reuters) - Canada's Sun Life Financial (SLF.TO) on Monday reported better-than-expected quarterly profits, helped by growth at its wealth and asset management unit and higher fees. The insurer, however, reported a fall in underlying earnings hurt by weakness in the United States and fewer sales of personal health insurance. "The dental business reported middling results this quarter... short-term volatility is a part of this business, from a long-term perspective, the investment should be positive," Morningstar analyst Suryansh Sharma said. Sun Life said underlying earnings from its U.S. segment were down 19%. Underlying net income from wealth and asset management rose 9% to C$457 million.
