OLDWICK, N.J.–(BUSINESS WIRE)– AM Best has affirmed the Financial Strength Rating of A++ (Superior) and the Long-Term Issuer Credit Ratings (Long-Term ICR) of “aaa” (Exceptional) of Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association of America (TIAA) and its wholly owned insurance subsidiary, TIAA-CREF Life Insurance Company (TIAA-CREF Life). TIAA and TIAA-CREF Life collectively are referred to as the TIAA Group. Concurrently, AM Best has affirmed the Long-Term Issue Credit Ratings (Long-Term IRs) of “aa” (Superior) on TIAA’s surplus notes. The outlook of these Credit Ratings (ratings) is stable. TIAA and TIAA-CREF Life are domiciled in New York, NY. (Please see below for detailed listing of the Long-Term IRs.)
The ratings reflect TIAA Group’s balance sheet strength, which AM Best assesses as strongest, as well as its very strong operating performance, favorable business profile and very strong enterprise risk management.
The ratings reflect TIAA’s continued market-leading position in the higher education and not-for-profit pension marketplaces. TIAA, together with its companion organization, College Retirement Equities Fund (CREF), enjoys significant economies of scale as one of the largest retirement systems in the United States, with assets under management and administration of approximately $1.6 trillion at year-end 2024. TIAA-CREF Life’s primary products include individual annuities, funding agreements and separate account guaranteed interest contracts, which are marketed to customers of TIAA and the public.
The ratings also reflect TIAA Group’s risk-adjusted capitalization, which has continued at the strongest level for its current business and investment risks, as measured by Best’s Capital Adequacy Ratio (BCAR), while continuing to have a diversified investment portfolio with a high degree of liquidity, along with a stable liability structure for a significant portion of its reserves. Risk-adjusted capitalization has been enhanced by TIAA’s very strong operating performance, which has more than offset realized investment losses in recent years. TIAA has significant statutory accounting flexibility to manage its risk-adjusted capital position, including the ability to adjust crediting rates on its large in-force block of general account retirement annuities. TIAA’s 2024 results delivered strong operating performance. Also noted is TIAA’s conservative approach to statutory reserving that further enhances the company’s balance sheet strength. AM Best notes that TIAA’s current adjusted financial and operating leverages remain within targeted levels.
AM Best also views favorably TIAA’s unique long insurance liability structure with low liquidity needs, whereby nearly three-quarters of its general account reserves are not cashable and can only be received as a death benefit, an IRS-required minimum distribution or in the form of a periodic annuity payout. Contract holders may transfer funds from TIAA to CREF or to other employer-approved funding vehicles, but typically in the form of a 10-year annuity payout.
Although AM Best considers TIAA’s investment management capabilities to be strong, its overall investment portfolio has generated modest levels of realized investment losses in recent years, with some continued concern regarding the group’s sizeable increased exposure to real estate assets, including commercial mortgage holdings and an elevated level of Schedule BA assets. TIAA’s mortgage loan portfolio has generally performed historically well, but delinquencies, foreclosures and restructures have continued to increase in the past three years. AM Best notes that there are still potential economic headwinds, despite rising interest rates. Additionally, TIAA’s Nuveen LLC is expected to provide continued additional earnings diversification and add additional scale to TIAA’s business profile going forward.
The following Long-Term IRs have been affirmed with a stable outlook:
Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association of America—
— “aa” (Superior) on $1.05 billion 6.85% surplus notes due Dec. 16, 2039
— “aa” (Superior) on $1.65 billion 4.90% surplus notes due Sept. 15, 2044
— “aa” (Superior) on $2 billion 4.27% surplus notes due May 15, 2047
— “aa” (Superior) on $1.25 billion 3.3% surplus notes due March 15, 2050

A North Carolina judge on Tuesday approved the distribution of $318 million to various victims of Greg Lindberg’s financial fraud.
Judge Max O. Cogburn accepted the special master’s report for the proceeds from the sale of the Clanwilliam Group of Companies. Several lawsuits had to be dealt with before the funds could be released, a process handled by the law firm Grier Wright Martinez, serving as special masters.
“Given the impediments to the Clanwilliam closing and fearing the loss of an opportunity to provide meaningful value to Defendant’s victims in the near future,” the parties “worked together to try to find a solution that would allow the Clanwilliam transaction to close,” Cogburn’s order stated.
Clanwilliam is considered a “primary restitution asset,” as identified by the special master. How Lindberg became involved with the company is an example of the complicated web his assets present to authorities.
According to reports in the Irish press, Eli Global, Lindberg’s private equity firm, invested in Helix Health in 2014. This investment led to the creation of Clanwilliam Group. Lindberg served as a director of Triton Financial, which in turn was the sole shareholder of Clanwilliam Headquarters, the entity that owned the Clanwilliam Group name.
In November 2020, a UK-based trust, Clanwilliam Group Trust, was established to take control of Clanwilliam companies. TA Associates Management acquired Clanwilliam via a “$450 million LBO on March 13, 2025,” according to Pitchbook Data.
Clanwilliam “is a developer of healthcare software intended to serve pharmacists, acute hospitals, care homes, and private clinicians of every specialty and national healthcare organization,” Pitchbook reported.
In May 2024, Lindberg was convicted for a second time of attempting to bribe North Carolina Insurance Commissioner Mike Causey. In November, Lindberg pleaded guilty to engineering a $2 billion fraud. His guilty plea on a money laundering conspiracy charge carries a maximum 10-year sentence, the Department of Justice said.
Lindberg is helping the special master to unwind his financial empire to fulfill his restitution obligations.
The full payout
Cogburn’s order authorizes this $318 million payout:
$172,171,598 allocated to the North Carolina Insurance Companies. These entities, which include Southland National Insurance Corp., Colorado Bankers Life Insurance Co., Bankers Life Insurance Co., and Southland National Reinsurance Corp., all owned by Lindberg, were placed in rehabilitation by order of the Superior Court of Wake County, N.C.
$108,195,266 to the Bermuda Insurance Companies. To be allocated as follows (subject to approval of the Bermuda Supreme Court): $80,993,997 for Private Bankers Life and Annuity, $18,868,418 for Northstar Financial Services, $3,714,041 for Omnia, and $4,618,810 for PB Investment Holdings.
$23,520,710 to Vista Life & Casualty Reinsurance Co.
$14,112,426 to the special master. Grier Law is to be paid $245,769.50 and reimbursed for expenses of $1,103.94. Scott Avila and Paladin Management Group, the financial advisor to the special master, is to receive $1,094,108.50 and reimbursed for expenses of $954.35.
Life and annuity insurers continue to pursue an expanded universe of investment options to generate additional portfolio income. Conning’s analysis suggests life and annuity insurers will continue to broaden portfolio strategies into alternative and private assets while maintaining exposure to their traditional fixed-income sources.
Cindy Beaulieu
The life and annuity industry has grown steadily during the past decade (see Figure 1) and Conning expects that trend to continue. Demand for life products continues to rise, supported by higher crediting rates enabled by elevated interest rates. Insurers of all sizes – not just larger firms – are developing more sophisticated, diversified portfolios featuring more alternative, private and less-liquid assets to help ensure they are better prepared to meet growing product demand.
Rising interest rates supporting market growth
Matt Reilly
The 2020 pandemic led to supply-chain challenges and increased fiscal support, resulting in higher inflation and necessitating a strong response from the Federal Reserve. Inflation has since proven stubborn, causing interest rates to remain elevated. Conning believes secular shifts – such as aging populations, rising fiscal deficits driving greater levels of government bond issuance and deglobalization – may continue to keep interest rates high and potentially raise them further.
Higher interest rates have positively impacted life carriers. The North American insurance industry experienced significant expansion in the past decade, achieving annualized premium growth of 6.5% since 2015.
Tail winds – such as higher interest rates, “peak 65,” significant industry capital formation, increased reinsurance capacity and product innovation – should continue to spur industry growth. Conning expects these trends to help grow the industry’s assets, which have risen by 4.7% annualized since 2015 to $5.6 trillion at the end of 2024.
Higher market yields
One key factor driving increased interest in products has been the improved crediting rates provided by life carriers. As illustrated in Figure 2, broader market interest rates were higher between 2015 and 2017 (corporate bonds are our proxy) which supported insurers’ crediting rates. However, as new cash rates fell in the later 2010s, book yields for the industry experienced significant pressure. While not the sole factor, investment income pressures drove many insurers to seek greater yield by broadening their investment options.
Life insurers seek broader asset allocation
No single data point can fully represent the evolving risk appetite of life insurers. However, Figure 3 provides an overview of the industry’s position at three-year intervals over the past decade. Notably, insurers have:
Reduced their exposure to the highest rated bonds (AAA-A).
Continued to expand their mortgage loan allocations.
Increased allocations to Schedule BA assets.
Upon closer examination, we see that the proportion of less liquid assets has grown significantly since 2018. The investment categories listed in Figure 4 have expanded to 38% of the portfolio from 30%. Private placements have experienced the most meaningful growth, to 19% from 13%. Perhaps not surprisingly, the areas of largest growth – mortgage loans and true private placements – typically offer greater yields than securities with similar ratings or similar capital charges.
Alternatives are not just for the largest insurers
While larger insurers have utilized these sectors and asset classes for many years, there is now broader adoption among insurers of all sizes. As Figure 5 shows, the largest companies continue to maintain considerable allocations in these less liquid investment categories. However, many smaller firms have also made notable changes in their allocations in the past five years. The smaller firms’ overall allocation to private placement investments rose to 8% from 2%, and their allocations to both mortgage loans and schedule BA assets grew by an average of 3%. Overall, the total allocations to these investments rose to 20% of their investable assets from 9%.
Greater interest in asset-backed securities
We also note that the industry’s allocations to parts of the asset-backed securities markets, notably esoteric ABS and CLOs, have been growing significantly; allocations to these types of securities grew to 13% of bonds in 2024 from 8% in 2015.
Life carriers have long been significant investors in the private markets. The private markets have grown significantly, with private credit being of particular interest for many life insurers. Some of these allocations are on an insurer’s balance sheets in the form of an LP commitment on schedule BA and a growing number hold a significant portion of the private credit exposure on the balance sheet as an investment-grade security (or securities) with a residual tranche. This would suggest some of the prior numbers pertaining to private assets, might be modestly understated.
Conning expects the life insurance industry to continue to experience significant asset growth and that carriers will look to expand their investment opportunity set. Companies will watch for investments with attractive yield and particularly longer duration options.
We expect growth to continue in private credit, commercial mortgage loans, private placements, CLOs and esoteric asset-backed securities. Additionally, there has been growing interest in other sectors and investments that are less commonly considered. One sector of significant potential growth is infrastructure, where opportunities exist in both debt and equity for insurers to gain exposure to real assets and cash flows. Compared to global insurers, U.S. insurers are under allocated to this sector.
While there are many reasons to be optimistic, several areas warrant caution, including:
Heightened market volatility and uncertainty affecting various investments in an insurer’s portfolio.
Managing increasing exposures to less liquid investments within a comprehensive ALM framework.
A growing portion of assets supporting liabilities which could exhibit significant optionality.
Discussions on potential changes to regulations and capital charges for investments.
Life insurers build for the longer term
Conning believes that greater diversification of insurers’ portfolio strategies is a healthy trend. While the era of low interest rates was a challenge, insurers learned more about the alternative, private and less liquid investment opportunities available. They appear to be putting that knowledge to good use and structuring portfolios that may better serve them in the long term as demand for their products continues to grow.
Interest rates will likely remain elevated for an extended period, which can be a plus for life carriers. However, market tests often appear with little warning and can offer unforeseen investment and ALM challenges. A well-diversified portfolio designed to serve the long-term needs of an insurer’s book of business can be an excellent defense mechanism.

Increasing rates of ‘gray divorce’ present a new risk to retirement.
KEY FINDINGS:
56% of married Americans say that a divorce would derail their financial retirement strategy
34% of divorced Americans say getting a divorce set their retirement plans back
44% of divorced Americans say they have put more thought into their retirement plan because of their divorce
MINNEAPOLIS–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
The majority of married Americans say a divorce would derail their retirement strategy, according to the 2025 Annual Retirement Study* from the Allianz Center for the Future of Retirement, part of Allianz Life Insurance Company of North America (Allianz Life).
Even as the national rate of divorce declines slightly, the divorce rate among adults aged 65 and older, often called ‘gray divorce,’ is increasing1. Divorcing near or after retirement presents unique challenges, especially if a couple created a retirement strategy together.
This risk is important to consider as 56% of married Americans say that a divorce would derail their financial retirement strategy. About one in three married boomers (35%) say a divorce would derail their financial retirement strategy, compared to 63% of millennials and 52% of Gen Xers.
Married Hispanic respondents (67%) were more likely than white (56%), Asian/Asian American (49%), and Black/African American (47%) respondents to say that a future divorce would derail their financial retirement strategy.
“No one wants to prepare for a divorce,” says Kelly LaVigne, VP of consumer insights, Allianz Life. “But divorce later in life – especially after retiring – is increasingly common. If you have been planning for retirement as a couple, then splitting up your assets to fund separate retirements can leave you short of achieving your retirement goals.”
Divorce causes more financial stress
Two in five (40%) Americans who have gone through divorce say it derailed their financial retirement strategy and 34% say getting a divorce set their retirement plans back. Still, 44% of divorced Americans say they have put more thought into their retirement plan because of their divorce.
“It may sound cold hearted, but it’s important to consider how a divorce would affect your financial future,” LaVigne says. “Those going through ‘gray divorce’ don’t have the time to rebuild retirement savings on their own. Trying to fund two separate lives, instead of a joint one, can deplete retirement accounts faster than anticipated. They may need to delay their retirement to accumulate more savings and consider additional risk management strategies to ensure their funds can last their lifetime.”
One in three (35%) married Americans worry about not having a financial plan if they get divorced in the future. Younger Americans are more likely to have this concern with 47% of millennials saying they worry about not having a financial plan for a potential future divorce, compared to 37% of Gen Xers and 15% of boomers.
This worry is not trivial. The majority of divorced Americans (54%) say that they have substantially more financial responsibilities after their divorce. With that, 41% say they feel more stressed about their finances since their divorce.
*Allianz Center for the Future of Retirement conducted an online survey, the 2025 Annual Retirement Study in January/February 2025 with a nationally representative sample of 1,000 Respondents age 25+ in the contiguous U.S. with an annual household income of $50k+ (single) / $75k+ (married/partnered) OR investable assets of $150k+.

Aflac employees displayed 15 tons of heart when they took part in Curing Kids Cancer’s 12th annual Fire Truck Pull held in downtown Columbia, South Carolina, to raise funds to support the Gamecocks Curing Kids Cancer Clinic at Prisma Health Children’s Hospital — Midlands.

We are excited to help advance the mission of Curing Kids Cancer.”
The Fire Truck Pull raised $64,000 for Prisma Health Children’s Hospital — Midlands, which is triple the amount raised at the event last year. Everyone involved in this event were inspired by incredible kids, and the Aflac teams raised $4,730 in total. Team Greyson raised the most with $1,400.
