Company Summary

For 175 years, National Life Group (“NLG”) has aimed to keep their promises to provide families stability in good times and in bad. And throughout that history, they have provided peace of mind to those families as they plan their futures.

As a mission-driven business, the cause of what they do is as important as the products they sell. And their cause is a very simple one, directed at the people who live and work on America’s Main Streets: “To Do good in our communities and with the individual families we serve.”

NLG Capital, the investment management company of NLG, manages approximately $40+ billion in AUM.  Our purpose is simple – to allow NLG to keep its promises.  How we do this – an obsessive focus on delivering investment results.  We drive results through a rigorous but collaborative investment process, and we hold ourselves to the highest of standards, both as investors and teammates.  While our process is based on rigor, our culture is based on our guiding principles: meritocracy, uncompromising transparency, intellectual honesty, performance driven learning, and the relentless pursuit of excellence.  These principles serve as the foundation of our team.  They govern the way we conduct ourselves, how we interact with teammates and how we approach every investment decision.  We act with the integrity and humility required to make the investment decision that is right for the firm, and ultimately our policyholders. Our culture has been deliberately built to foster curiosity and provide opportunities to learn and grow, both as people and investors.  The flat and collaborative nature of our team promotes an atmosphere where the best ideas are continually expressed and rewarded.  Our pursuit of excellence is unwavering.
