Why Ameritas? A 137-Year Legacy of Doing Retirement Right
Ameritas is not your typical “big box” retirement provider. As a 137-year-old mutual insurance company based in Lincoln, Nebraska, they’ve been offering retirement plans for over 60 years—and their commitment is to Main Street, not Wall Street.
Their mutual structure means all excess revenue is returned to customers and policyholders, not shareholders. That allows them to focus on real people, real service, and real retirement success.
Ameritas offers retirement plans for every stage of business and sector, including:
- 401(k) Plans
- 403(b) Plans
- 457(b) Governmental Plans
- Startup Plans (one of the few providers still offering them)
