Security Benefit has offered retirement plans to educational employers for over 50 years.

Security Benefit recognized the need to create a retirement plan for its own employees in the 1960's before 401(k) plans existed. Upon the creation of this retirement plan, the word of this innovation spread to other businesses.

Our founding principle and belief that everyone deserves an opportunity to achieve financial well-being was the spark that ignited the innovation for offering retirement plans.

For more than five decades, we’ve focused our expertise solely on this market, providing a broad suite of annuities and mutual fund programs to help customers align their assets with their aspirations.

After celebrating 125 years of commitment to our customers and communities in 2017, Security Benefit decided to pave the way for the next 125 years with a brand refresh. 

In December of 1891, in the back of a small Topeka, Kansas, drugstore, 11 determined men each providing a single dollar pooled their resources to create an insurance fund for those who otherwise couldn't afford it.
