American Republic's History

In 1929, American Republic Insurance Company was established by a man named Watson Powell. Surviving the Great Depression required smart financial planning and the responsible management of 200 charter policies.

By the end of World War II, the Iowa-based insurance company started to move their business to other states. American Republic became licensed in Minnesota in 1945.

Now, American Republic has expanded all across the country — and has become one of America's top health and life insurance companies. Their headquarters is located in Des Moines, Iowa.
