Chairman's Message

2010 was a milestone year for American Fidelity Assurance Company (AFA) as we celebrated 50 years of providing financial security for our Customers. Building on the groundwork laid by my father and grandfather, AFA has triumphed because we are balanced, conservative and prepared. We remain always loyal to that foundation and apply their philosophy of family values, honesty and integrity to everything we do today.

Though the economy continues to bring challenges to all businesses, American Fidelity Corporation (AFC) continues with strong results in 2010. AFA, the flagship business in our Corporation, saw excellent results, recording a record net income in 2010. With continued business solidity, as confirmed once again with an “A+” rating from A.M. Best and an “A” rating from Weiss Ratings, AFA continues to thrive due to conservative growth practices and strives to lead our markets through one-on-one, solutions-oriented service to our Customers.

Results in our core markets were solid due to our strong leadership and conservative discipline. We will continue with our strategies to take advantage of new opportunities and provide innovative products to serve our Customers.

We recognize that our focus on our Customers sets us apart from others. Our commitment to being a provider of choice is balanced with our dedication to be the employer of choice for our Colleagues and sets the stage for our continued success. Our 50th year of business also marked our eighth year of ranking on FORTUNE magazine’s list of the “100 Best Companies to Work For” in America.

The American Fidelity family remains dedicated to you! It’s what brings us together as a company – protecting our Customers and their family’s financial security. We are American Fidelity. Our Family, Dedicated to YoursTM.
