National Life Group is a diversified group of financial services companies that offer life insurance, annuities, mutual funds and estate, business succession and retirement planning strategies.

The National Life Insurance Company was chartered on November 13, 1848, “upon the principle of mutual participation in the funds or profits” of the company. The company officially issued its first policy on February 1, 1850. Its name was intended to signal that its organizers were from many different states and believed company’s life insurance policies would be sold throughout the nation.

Dr. Julius Yemans Dewey, a physician in Montpelier, Vermont, was among the company's founders. He would later serve as general agent and then president of the company and delivered the payment of the company's very first claim on July 26, 1850.

Today, National Life Group includes National Life Insurance Co., Life Insurance Company of the Southwest, in Dallas, Texas, Sentinel Investments and Equity Services, Inc. and has more than $30 billion in assets under management.
