National Life Group’s Independent Distribution Channel Celebrates 10th Anniversary

(February 6, 2008) Montpelier, VT - National Life Group’s independent distribution channel, Independent Financial Alliance (IFA), celebrates its tenth anniversary this year.

“It’s hard to believe that we opened our doors for business in 1998,” said Ruth Smith, Senior Vice President. “Over the course of those 10 years we have built a strong core of production sources who value the relationships they have built with our Home Office team.”

In 1998, Independent Financial Alliance, formerly known as Life Event Advantage, was established to complement National Life Group’s well-established career channel. Independent Financial Alliance continues to grow at double digit rates, which can be attributed to a competitive UL portfolio, notable Living Benefits, and building and fostering relationships with over 200 independent agencies.
