INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT


A 140-YEAR LONG TERM PERSPECTIVE

As the investment arm of the 9th largest US life insurance company*, we have the
ability and resources to focus on the long-term and execute consistently for our
clients.  Our mindset is long-term, due to the type of liabilities we help our
parent manage and also from Securian Financial's 140-year history. The firm is
based in St. Paul, Minnesota with roots going back to 1880.

Securian Asset Management was built with a risk management focus because we
invest our AA-rated** parent’s General Account capital in all our products. 

With nearly $45 billion in AUM, we’re small enough to be nimble and large enough
to have all the resources to consistently meet our clients’ needs.  Each of our
investment strategies exploits niche market opportunities within our risk
management framework, delivering a differentiated solution designed to meet our
clients’ needs for the long-term. 


RELIABLY IMPROVING THE RISK/RETURN RATIO: EQUITY STABILIZATION


Institutional investors face a balancing act between two equally important
needs: achieving robust long-term returns while avoiding the painful
consequences of near-term drawdowns. The intense market volatility of the past
few months highlights the difficulty in maintaining this balance. Securian Asset
Management has developed a sophisticated risk management approach which is
suitable for all institutional investors that invest in risky asset classes but
require stable returns. Learn more about our Equity Stabilization Strategies
here.


CREATING VALUE FOR OUR CLIENTS

An exceptional client experience also takes open communication and superior
service. Our research, portfolio management and client service teams all work
together to effectively deliver personalized service with the goal of exceeding
client expectations.

We encourage interaction between clients and our investment professionals,
fostering direct contact between clients and the people managing their assets.
