“At Integrity, we are passionate
about holistically serving the life, health and wealth needs of Americans
to ensure they have the best solutions and coverage for every stage of
life, including retirement,” shared Bryan W. Adams, Co-Founder and CEO of
Integrity. “Since its founding, Annexus has been the market leader in
developing annuity and life insurance products with the highest level of
service in the industry. Joining the Integrity platform will provide the
experienced team at Annexus with a comprehensive suite of technology,
resources and support to layer on top of their already exceptional
systems and processes. The partnership will give Integrity access to
Annexus’ deep product development and distribution partnership expertise,
which will greatly enhance our mission to help more Americans prepare for
the good days ahead. It’s an ideal match that will elevate the way
insurance and financial planning products are developed and distributed —
we can’t wait to get started!”
“We created Annexus
around a unique vision to revolutionize product development and delivery
in the annuity and life insurance space and provide better solutions to
our stakeholders. Likewise, Integrity has transformed insurance
distribution, wealth management and retirement planning by assembling an
unsurpassed network of industry leaders and legends who are innovating
every part of the industry,” said Ron Shurts, Co-Founder and CEO of
Annexus. “By leveraging our respective strengths, we see unbelievable
growth potential for both of our companies. Carriers, advisors and
clients need the products and services we provide more than ever. When it
comes to improving lives, there is no finish line. We’re committed to
helping every American enjoy a safer and more secure retirement, and
partnering with Integrity will help us amplify and accelerate toward that
goal.”
Visionary companies
across multiple industries are choosing to align their expansive success
with Integrity. The Integrity platform creates unprecedented
opportunities for collaboration where leaders are thoughtfully innovating
every aspect of life, health and wealth protection.
“When two innovators of
this magnitude come together with a common goal, everyone wins,”
explained Tom Dempsey, Chief Distribution Officer at Integrity. “Ron
Shurts has always been one of the hardest working, most respected leaders
in the industry. Every move he makes is with the intention of improving
lives — those of his coworkers, his carrier and financial services
provider partners, and ultimately, the consumers who receive better
outcomes from the products Annexus designs. With Annexus at our side,
Integrity will be able to provide an even wider range of retirement
solutions to meet the essential needs of the rapidly growing senior
market. This partnership reinforces Integrity’s commitment to improve
retirement planning for all Americans.”
Through Integrity’s
best-in-class platform, Annexus will gain access to a breadth and depth
of proprietary technology and resources. These include industry-leading
real-time quoting and enrollment systems, customer relationship
management software and ongoing product development. Integrity partners
are supported by a substantial infrastructure that streamlines business
services and administration. Services include areas such as People &
Culture, Technology & Innovation, legal and compliance, and access to
Integrity’s world-class advertising and marketing firm.
Enhancing all these
benefits is the opportunity for Annexus employees to enjoy meaningful
company ownership through Integrity’s impactful Employee
Ownership Plan.
“Connecting Integrity’s
vast scope and scale with the expansive products we’re developing is very
exciting — equally important is the alignment of cultures,” explained Don
Dady, Co-Founder of Annexus. “Annexus and Integrity both value hard work,
creativity and putting people first. Integrity’s Employee Ownership Plan
was an important aspect of this partnership. Our talented and hardworking
employees are key to our success, and the chance to own a piece of a
dynamic and forward-thinking company like Integrity unlocks untold
potential value for all our team members. We’re incredibly excited about
what the future holds with this partnership — it’s a win-win for
everyone.”
“Our mission has always
been to help consumers make the most of what life brings in a more
holistic way, and to do so, we’ve partnered with some of the most trusted
and respected names in the business,” said Steve Young, Chairman of
Integrity’s Board of Directors. “The Annexus team have been pioneers in
designing industry-leading retirement planning products and services for
decades. By bringing their expertise into our Integrity family, we’ll
help more Americans save and retire with greater independence and
security. This partnership signifies a new era not just for Integrity and
Annexus, but for the industry itself. I believe it’s a moment we’ll look
back on as transformative in the years to come.”
