Message from President and Chairman
How do the actions of one generation affect the next? At Illinois Mutual, that’s a
question we ask ourselves every day. After all, the solutions we provide—disability
income insurance, life insurance and voluntary benefits at the workplace—are all
about helping our policyowners plan today for what may lie ahead tomorrow.
It’s a responsibility we take seriously, and it’s why we continuously evaluate our
products and the way in which we deliver them.
In 2011, we introduced the latest in a long line of DI insurance plans—the
Paycheck Power℠ Series—which offers more benefits and flexibility than
ever. Powerful new technology came to agents through POWERPitch® 5G, our
extraordinary new illustration software with mobile 5G QUOTE℠ capabilities.
These powerful tools allow our agents to better explain, quote and select the
right coverage for their hardworking clients. We also began the transition to a
new generation of leadership, building on a century-long legacy of hard work and
a commitment to doing what’s right for people and the business.
As we move forward, we will continue to evolve to meet the needs of a new
generation of policyowners. What won’t change is the core philosophy behind our
business. We understand who we are—hardworking middle Americans providing
quality insurance coverage for hardworking middle Americans.
Thank you for the opportunity to help you protect what matters most.

Katie M. Jenkins, President Michel A. McCord, CLU Chairman & CEO
