Each year the NAIC (National Association of Insurance Commissioners) issues a list of the leading life insurance companies by direct premium written. Here is the current list of Top 15 life insurance companies in America.
Among the leading life insurance companies are well-known insurers such as MetLife, Prudential, Northwestern Mutual, Aflac, New York Life and Lincoln National.
Also, the III.org (Insurance Information Institute) issues an annual report stating the top 10 term life insurance companies by the number of individual term life insurance policies issued for the previous year.
