Who we are. How we Strive.
Over 170 years and counting.
Becoming a trusted financial institution doesn’t happen overnight. Since we issued our very first policy, we’ve been protecting clients through good times and bad—through wars, pandemics, and financial crises—even paying out dividends consistently every year since 1854.
We have nurtured relationships that transcend generations, building a track record of financial stability upon four basic cornerstones:
- The necessity of financial strength to underpin all promises
- The role of mutuality in protecting policy owners’ interests
- The social and financial imperative of life insurance
- The value of our agents to provide expert guidance for complex financial decisions.
Our vision stretches far into the future.
We take a long-term view. We have to. We invest for the long term because we make long-term commitments to our policy owners. Our diversified business strategy and long-term investment approach are both specifically designed to protect your money from the ups and downs of the economy—and that will never change.
Why? As a mutual insurance company our clients don't just own their policies—they own the company.*** So simply put, in everything we do, our interests are aligned with the long-term goals of our policy owners, not the short-term gains of outside investors.
Our business is focused on stability, handling whatever economic challenges and opportunities arise, in order to ensure that we meet our long-term commitments.
Because we keep our promises—and have done so for more than 170 years.
