The American Business Story
Quality, dependability and vitality are the foundation of American Business. Our firm, founded in 1967, has become the go-to life insurance resource boutique for the nation’s leading financial advisory firms. We are not a “one-stop shop” — we are an independent and vital life insurance resource firm that specializes in working closely with high-end investment, accounting, legal and risk management firms and their clients.
Our education and training have set our insurance professionals apart from their industry peers. The American Business Two Client Philosophy™ features the delicate balance and competence required to conduct a “conversation with the affluent” and their trusted advisors. Our consultative and team approach differentiates American Business from our peers.
As we navigate with our business principles through time, our work with clients and advisors will have a lasting impact on generations to come. We have a responsibility to consistently provide the best insurance solutions for our trusted strategic advisors and their clients. We take this responsibility to heart and have a continued passion to improve our firm and expand our resources.
