The AM Best A-/a- ratings are given to companies that have an excellent ability to meet their ongoing insurance and senior financial obligations.
“The AM Best A- rating demonstrates Federal Life’s very strong risk-adjusted capitalization and balance sheet strength, and its achievement has been foremost amongst our business goals,” said Knut Olson, Chief Executive Officer and Director of Federal Life, who joined the Company in August 2023. “The Company’s focus on profitable growth implemented by our new leadership team can now be accelerated using our partnerships with other leading life insurers, banks, IMOs, general agencies, and worksite distributors, to market a broad portfolio of protection, asset accumulation and supplemental life and health products,” added Olson.
