Illinois League of Financial Institutions Trust

October 29, 2008 -- Northfield Inn Springfield
October 30, 2008 -- Holiday Inn Collinsville
October 31, 2008 -- Oak Brook Hills Marriott Resort

The Illinois League of Financial Institutions Trust will be conducting group insurance benefit seminars throughout the State.

As always, these meetings are open to all financial institutions -- it is not necessary that your institution be a member of the League nor a participant in the Illinois League of Financial Institutions Group Insurance program.  ALL ARE WELCOME!

The meeting schedule and the location of each is provided on the reservation form.  There is no cost to attend the meetings.  Please make your reservation as soon as possible to help us plan for meeting space.

Presentations at the seminars will be made by representatives of the Illinois League and Principal Financial Group.  The issues that will be discussed are of interest to financial institutions regardless of where your institution currently buys group insurance coverage.  The agenda for the meeting highlights the topics to be discussed.

We encourage you to have your organization represented at one of the seminars.  Come see, and compare, what the Illinois League of Financial Institutions Trust is offering for 2009.

Strength and Stability During Turbulent Times
 

To our Members and Non-Members: 

We have all heard the adage – “may you live in interesting times”.  If you had any doubt before, we ARE living in interesting times.  The volatility in the markets, the uncertainty in determining value of core assets, and the daily dose of bad news announcing failures of long time financial service companies, has made all of us, no matter how seasoned we are, uneasy and doubtful of the future.

The 24/7 news cycle feeding on any bad news with its collection of faux experts opining on the causes of and solutions to our collective national financial problems is enough to frighten any reasonable person into believing that the world as we know it is coming to an end. 

For that reason – I ask you to take a few moments and look at some aspects of the ILFI Trust that you might not know:

bulletThe Illinois League of Financial Institutions Trust offers ONLY fully insured group insurance products.  These health, life, dental, vision, and disability products are fully insured by the Principal Financial Group of Des Moines, Iowa.
bulletThe Principal Financial Group is a strong partner.  Who says so?
bullet Fitch Rating—Insurer Financial Strength Rating of 'AA' Very Strong
bullet Standard & Poor's Rating Group—Insurer Financial Strength Rating of 'AA', Very Strong
bullet A.M. Best—Financial Strength Rating of 'A+', Superior
bullet Moody's Investors Service—Insurance Financial Strength Rating of 'Aa2'
bulletMany of the Trust’s reserve assets are held by the Trust itself.  These assets of nearly $4,000,000 are invested in municipal bonds or in pledged government securities on our overnight deposits and are not subject to the volatility experienced by other investment types.
 

Remember – the Illinois League of Financial Institutions Trust is governed by Trustees who are Illinois bankers – just like you.  They take their fiduciary responsibility very seriously.  That is why the Trust is invested conservatively.  That is why the Trust only offers fully insured products.  That is why the partner that the Trustees selected to insure our products is a Very Strong/Superior rated partner.  That is why you can be confident with the Illinois League of Financial Institutions Trust as YOUR partner in providing group insurance products to your employees during Turbulent Times.
