“The Industry Champion of Retirement Security award is a great honor from a great organization, and we’re proud to see Paula receive this distinguished recognition,” said Allan Levine, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Global Atlantic. “At Global Atlantic, we’re dedicated to ensuring that our clients have a secure retirement, and Paula’s industry leadership, commitment and advocacy is unmatched.”
Ms. Nelson is a strong advocate for digital modernization adoption and remains active in legislative and regulatory issues impacting the industry. She joined Global Atlantic in 2010 to lead the organization’s annuity distribution organization. She later served as Co-President of Individual Markets for Global Atlantic before her current role, focusing on strategic growth and new market opportunities for Global Atlantic's Individual Markets business. Ms. Nelson has more than 35 years of experience in the financial services industry.
“Paula is among the most accomplished leaders within the insured retirement industry, a tremendous supporter of IRI, a powerful advocate for industry priorities, and committed to expanding diversity, equity, and inclusion across the industry,” said Wayne Chopus, IRI President and CEO.
IRI’s Champions of Retirement Security Award was created in 2013 to recognize policymakers who have contributed significantly to advancing ideas and policies that enhance retirement security for all Americans.
