AFA's Growth Crosses International Lines
In the 21st century, AFA has continued to grow rapidly with
continued strong internal growth plus the acquisitions of
Mid-Continent Life and American Public Life in 2000. It has
also planted the seeds for future expansion, through the
establishment of other areas: the Latin American Life Division
that sells insurance in 17 countries in Latin America; Pacific
World Group, which brokers property and casualty insurance in
Malaysia, Singapore and Hong Kong; and Asset Services/InvesTrust,
which provides investment management consulting and independent
trust services.
Despite AFA’s impressive national and international
success, Bill Cameron is proud that the company his grandfather
and father started is still operated like a family business.
“We are committed to keeping the company private and
independent,” he says. “I’m building on their
foundation, and I want to pass these opportunities on to my kids
and to future generations.”
