History
Security Benefit traces its origins to December 1891, when, in the back of a small Topeka, Kansas, drugstore, 11 men each providing a single dollar pooled their resources to create an insurance fund for those who otherwise couldn't afford it. On Feb. 22, 1892, they founded a fraternal association, the Knights and Ladies of Security, described as the precursor to Security Benefit, which provided working men and women and their children with financial security in the event of a calamity. The company states that it has been its legacy for more than 130 years, and that it has evolved into a leader in the U.S. retirement market with assets under management of more than $50 billion. It also states that for more than five decades it has focused its expertise solely on the retirement market, providing a broad suite of annuities and mutual fund programs.
