As Transamerica Occidental Life Insurance Company (TOLIC) begins its second century of service (its predecessor, Occidental Life Insurance Company, was founded in 1906), the focus remains the same: to provide financial products and services that help individuals, families and businesses create better futures.

Transamerica Insurance & Investment Group (TIIG) is a marketing unit of TOLIC and its affiliates. TIIG offers products underwritten by TOLIC and Transamerica Financial Life Insurance Company (in New York), including term life insurance, individual and survivor-ship universal life insurance, variable universal life insurance, and fixed annuities. In addition to the traditional uses of life insurance, TIIG has programs and services to support tax and estate planning, supplemental retirement planning, premium financing, wealth accumulation and preservation, and business continuation.

In the U.S., TIIG focuses on the upper-middle and affluent markets, plus a number of niche markets, including small to mid-sized businesses and various ethnic groups. In the Pacific Rim, TIIG's primary market is Southeast Asia, which includes residents of Hong Kong and Singapore. The emphasis in Asia is on asset management and wealth transfer.

TIIG relies primarily on agent-delivered life insurance products and services, with approximately 400 general agencies and 116,000 contracted producers. Independent general agents are responsible for recruiting, developing and supporting producers who, in turn, interface with the company's policyowners. Through its National Accounts channel, TIIG also offers life insurance products to customers via the broker/dealer community.

Transamerica Occidental Life ended its first year with $602,000 of life insurance in force. With more than $763 billion of life insurance in force as of January 1, 2006, Transamerica has a proud history of innovation, and a 100-year commitment to serving the long-term interests of its policyowners.
