We are committed to making our existing life and annuities business thrive and to developing new ways to serve customers better
In 2013, we started on our journey with the launch of Delaware Life Holdings. The current success of Delaware Life is a credit to our talented team who has worked tirelessly to overcome challenges and simplify legacy complexities to deliver more useful and effective products that meet the savings and retirement needs of our customers.
We are exploring ways in which we can now expand our impact, pursuing opportunities to bring new products and services to a wider range of people: across households of all ages, from high net worth individuals to hard-working folks who strive for a balance of financial security and flexibility, today and in the future.
We have created Group One Thousand One to lead this growing group. It is our role as parent company to drive us towards our shared goal: giving people more control over their money, making it easier for them to do businesses with us, and creating more opportunities for them to generate value every day.
This kind of transformation takes time and starts from within. We have worked hard to break down unnecessary siloes and the types of institutional barriers to execution that can exist in more traditional companies. Our people are hands-on and hungry to make a real difference in people’s lives, and we have already begun building new capabilities in technology and customer service.
Our commitment to empowerment extends beyond our people and our customers. We are passionate about supporting local initiatives that create opportunities for underserved communities through education and sports. Most recently, we are proud supporters of the Fields & Futures initiative in Oklahoma City and the upcoming LPGA Women In Tech tournament in Indianapolis.
We believe there is power in numbers: in the communities we serve, in our team, in our partners, and in the data driving our innovations
I am thrilled to introduce you to Group One Thousand One at this pivotal point in our growth, and excited to be building a group with a long-term commitment to making insurance more useful, intuitive and accessible.
Our new parent company name — Group One Thousand One — came about because we believe there is power in numbers: in the communities we serve, in our team, in our partners, and in the data driving our innovations. Plus, 1001 is a unique number. Raised to the second, third and fourth power, 1001 retains perfect symmetry and balance, which is indicative of our mission: However big we get, however many people we impact, we will always balance fresh thinking with insurance acumen to empower all to achieve financial security.
