We are strong
The Knights of Columbus is a fraternal benefit society that is strong, secure and stable. Members can be confident that we’ll be here when you need us. We’ve been successfully protecting families since 1882, and our outlook remains bright.
Don’t just take our word for it.
- Standard & Poor’s has given us their highest rating (AAA, Extremely Strong) for 17 consecutive years.
- A.M. Best has bestowed on us their highest rating (A++, Superior) for 34 consecutive years.
- The Insurance Marketplace Standards Association (IMSA) has given us their certification for our ethical business and marketing practices.
Only three insurance companies in the United States can claim these three accolades. In Canada, we stand alone with these endorsements.
Remember, in 2008, the Knights of Columbus gave more than $150 million to Catholic and other charitable causes. In these uncertain times, find comfort in an organization that leads the way in doing good for others while doing good for our own.
We are secure
Since 1882, we have been committed to protecting the financial futures of our Knights and their families. We do this by paying claims and dividends to our insured members. In 2008, we paid well over $392 million in death claims and other benefits, and more than $369 million in dividends to our policyholders. Even more impressive is the fact that from 2000 to 2009 the Knights of Columbus paid $3.191 billion in dividends to insured members.
We are stable
Prudent leadership and management has led to the rapid growth of our assets, providing an adequate foundation for our member’s protection, and securing our obligations to our insured and their beneficiaries. Also, because we are a fraternal benefit society, we have no stockholders. Our owners are our members and we return our good fortune in the form of dividends to our policyholders.
