Indianapolis -- May 20, 2005
Continuing its commitment to offer a broad range of investment options to meet the diverse needs of retirement plan sponsors and their participants, American United Life Insurance Company® (AUL), a OneAmerica® company, is pleased to announce the immediate availability of 25 new investment options. These new options were selected using AUL's comprehensive investment selection and review process, and include the addition of two new fund companies: Oppenheimer Funds and AllianceBernstein.
These new investment options are being added to an extensive AUL portfolio, bringing the grand total to more than 150 funds. AUL's goal is to offer options in every major asset class and investment style, including money market, fixed interest, equity, sector, index, lifecycle and lifestyle. The addition of the new fund companies brings AUL's grand total to 26 companies and adds more diversity to AUL's investment options lineup, creating more options for plan sponsors and participants. AUL most recently teamed with industry leaders Fidelity Investments and Russell Investment Group to expand its offerings to include lifecycle funds. These efforts are part of AUL's year-long efforts to actively expand and review its investment options lineup to better meet client needs.
"We believe that the addition of these 25 new investment options shows our dedication and commitment to help our clients achieve their retirement goals. AUL has made it our goal to be a "cutting-edge" financial services company by developing a dynamic investment option line-up," said Bill Yoerger, vice president of AUL Retirement Services. "We believe in providing our plan sponsors and participants with a diverse portfolio, so that we have options for every type of investor."
