Consistent Financial Strength

Since 1857, Northwestern Mutual's strength and stability have backed our promise to be there for clients when their financial security is tested. As a mutual company, Northwestern Mutual focuses on clients' long-term needs — not just selling a product or answering to shareholder demands. In today's challenging environment, the company maintains its exceptional financial strength and offers clients financial security solutions to address a variety of needs.

Industry-Leading Dividend Payout Demonstrates
Long-term Value

At Northwestern Mutual, our clients' financial security is our business. It means we're committed to delivering on our promises by having a financially strong company that delivers consistent results, even during tough times.

We recently announced a dividend payout for 2010 of more
than 4.7 billion dollars — the second largest in our company history — for our clients who own life, annuity, DI and long-term care policies. For more information about this dividend announcement or products and services offered by Northwestern Mutual read the dividend press release.

For current information on the financial results and operations of Northwestern Mutual Life Insurance Company, please see its 2009 Third Quarter Statutory Statement.
