Assessing Financial Strength

When deciding whom to trust to help you manage financial risk and achieve financial security, you'll want to carefully consider a company's financial strength.

  • Is it stable?
  • Will it be a good steward of your resources?
  • Will it be here for you when you need it?

Financial strength is the cornerstone of any company, and Northwestern Mutual has an exceptionally strong financial position — as shown in the following indicators of performance.

Independent, third-party ratings
Northwestern Mutual maintains the best possible insurance financial strength ratings from the four major rating agencies: A++ A.M. Best (June 2009); AAA Fitch Ratings (June 2009); AAA Standard & Poor's (June 2009); Aaa Moody's Investors Service (April 2009).
