National Life Group Board Approves Dividends for 2026

The National Life Group Board of Directors has approved an estimated payment of $23 million in dividends to eligible participating policyholders in 2026. This payment represents National Life Group’s ongoing commitment to its policyholders and continues the proud heritage of having paid dividends since 1855.

An annual dividend is a yearly payment from the life insurance company for certain policies. Every year the company determines what the dividend rate will be, or if they will pay a dividend at all. Annual dividends are not guaranteed and may increase or decrease from policy year to policy year.

“Since 1855, paying dividends to policyholders has been central to our mission of delivering peace of mind to everyone we serve," said Mehran Assadi, Chairman, CEO, and President of National Life Group. "We are committed to fulfilling our promises to families and business owners, and as we celebrate our 178th year as a mutual company, we will continue to grow with purpose and support our clients every step of the way.”

National Life Group has been keeping promises since 1848, providing access to flexible life insurance and annuities for families, businesses, educators, and first responders nationwide. With an independent, entrepreneurial spirit, our values are to “Do good, Be good, Make good” for our customers, agents, employees, and the communities we serve. Learn more at NationalLife.com.

Contact: Beth Rusnock, corporate communications, National Life Group, 802-522-4067.

National Life Group® is a trade name of National Life Insurance Company (NLIC), Montpelier, VT founded in 1848, Life Insurance Company of the Southwest (LSW), Addison, TX chartered in 1955, and its affiliates.
