Putting Our Financial Strength to Work for You

Hello. I’m John Blackburn, chief executive officer of COUNTRY Financial and chairman of the board of Cotton States Insurance.  We understand how the economy can impact people everywhere. I want you to know we can help you weather any storm…whether it’s from natural events or economic ones.

We make that commitment because we’re financially strong.  For more than 80 years, we have invested conservatively.  And, we closely guard our financial strength.  That’s why economic downturns have not impacted us like they have many others.

Everyone wants and needs security. Our financial representatives can help you build a tangible, long term financial security plan.  No matter where you’re starting from, we can help you get to where you want to be in the future.

We’re a Fortune 1000 company and we’re highly rated.  But don’t take my word for it.  The Street.Com, an independent rating agency, looks at the financial strength of about 750 life insurance companies.  We’re currently ranked in the top four.  And, we rank in the top 13 out of roughly 2,400 companies that provide auto, home and farm insurance. 

By any measure, COUNTRY and Cotton States are strong.  We’re growing and we’re here for the long haul… because our business is built to help people just like you every step of the way.

These days, people everywhere are realizing how hard it is to protect their assets while also reaching for their dreams. In a million different ways, we really only do one thing at COUNTRY and Cotton States… but we do it well.  We help people become financially secure.  Talk to a financial representative near you to find out how we can help.
