A structured and dedicated transition approach

Leaving your current system can be a big decision. We strive to make the transition as seamless as possible. A designated transition leader ensures a smooth transition by working closely with you, a firm transition leader and the Securian transition team. We address your needs prior to, during and up to 90 days post registration. You’ll be ready to meet with clients and write business as soon as you are appointed.

High compensation and quality benefits

Securian's advisors are far from average and so is their compensation. Our advisors have an independent compensation structure that allows them to consistently outperform the industry average. 

Take a look at how our experienced advisors have measured up since 2000.

Our new experienced advisors start near the top of our tiered benefits program. Our full suite of benefits include: errors and omissions insurance, a 401(k) plan with matching contributions, Nonqualified Deferred Compensation plan, group life and disability insurance, pre-tax medical reimbursement account, and subsidized medical and dental plans.

Doing what's best for your clients

We offer competitive proprietary products, and we also give you the freedom to deliver solutions from other companies. There are no proprietary quotas, and you’re not required to sell specific types of business or products.

You’ll have access to quality insurance and investment products including life insurance, annuities, 401(k), trust services and assets management. This wide variety of products allows you to provide distinct value and meet a range of clients’ financial needs.
