American Fidelity: Giving A Different Opinion About Your Finances

Finance has always been an important and integral foundation of every society and the larger economy. Finance is the sole platform on which every service stands. Be it human resources, medical assistance, transportation or just about anything. Meet American Fidelity with 60 years of experience. A company that clearly understands finance and how crucial it is for the economy.

American Fidelity: The Founding Story

In 1960, C.W. and C.B. Cameron founded American Fidelity Assurance Company based on a fundamental belief: The most important asset anyone has is their ability to work and earn a living. That’s why American Fidelity provides supplemental benefits products to help people protect their finances and save for medical expenses and retirement.

C.W. knew from experience how important products like disability insurance could be. When he was 14, he had to drop out of school to support his family after his father became disabled. Years later, he used that experience to become an early leader in reaching people at their workplaces and offering payroll deduction to purchase products to help them prepare for the unexpected. He focused on reaching state agency employees, trade associations and schoolteachers, all of which remain our key customer markets today.

Today, American Fidelity continues to embrace that pioneering spirit and strive to provide a different opinion to our customers. “To us, that means constantly looking for ways to make things easier for the people we serve,” notes the company. The company is currently run by C.W.’s grandson, Bill Cameron.

American Fidelity: Company Offerings

American Fidelity specializes in the education, public sector, automotive and healthcare industries with products like group and individual life, health and annuity services as well as other financial security products and services.

While multiple companies are offering similar finance and assurance services, American Fidelity is different for its six-decade experience and also because the company offers a different opinion. Plus, American Fidelity is more than an insurance company!

“We also offer benefits strategies to help empower you to make benefits decisions that help both your organization and your employees,” notes the company. “Our goal is to act as an extension of your human resources department. We educate, enroll, and support the development of competitive employee benefits packages—all while ensuring seamless administration and employee satisfaction.”

The experienced account management team delivers year-round support, helps employers overcome benefits administration and budget challenges, and always offers a different perspective – a different opinion. That’s not all. American Fidelity offers more when you partner with them.

“When you partner with American Fidelity, you can be assured we have the financial strength to be there when you need us most.” Since 1982, the company has been rated “A+” (Superior)1 by A.M. Best Company, one of the nation’s leading insurance company rating services.

American Fidelity Products

You may think creating a strategic employee benefits package is as simple as offering a variety of products, but without streamlining your carriers and utilizing the appropriate benefits management software, you could be losing valuable time and money.

At American Fidelity, the company juggles these pieces so that clients don’t have to. The company is not just a supplemental insurance carrier—but also offers services that help the client’s Human Resources department do their job faster, and often, more efficiently.

American Fidelity has a diverse product portfolio to include employee benefits, dependant verification, HR technology, reimbursement accounts, retirement savings, and more.
