Thanks For Taking Us to the Top

Our sales and distribution partners powered Athene to a record 2022. Our total annuity sales of $20.4 billion represented a year-over-year increase of more than 130 percent. We finished the year ranked first in fixed indexed annuities, first in total fixed annuities and first in overall annuity sales in both the third and fourth quarters.*

To a baseball fan like me, this is akin to winning the coveted Triple Crown — leading the league in batting average, home runs and runs batted in. There have been only 17 Triple Crown winners since 1878. The last was Tigers third baseman Miguel Cabrera in 2012. Before Cabrera, you have to go back to 1967 and Boston’s incomparable Carl Yastrzemski.

A “triple crown” in annuity sales is also a rare distinction, but it isn’t about us. It’s about teamwork. It’s a partnership that pairs Athene’s market-leading product suite and commitment to continuous improvement with your passion for your clients, your business, and your personal success. 

We’re proud, but we’re not complacent. We’ve invested aggressively to support continued growth, tripling new business processing capacity in 2022 with a laser focus on producer and customer support. This year, we’ll introduce enhancements to our product suite and producer experience that will make it even easier to build your business by providing clients with financial solutions that can help them retire with confidence.

As I’ve said many times before, the best is yet to come. Thank you again for your business, and we look forward to partnering with you on another record-breaking year.
