Aflac Incorporated

Aflac Incorporated is an American insurance company and a Fortune 500 enterprise, primarily engaged in providing supplemental health and life insurance. Headquartered in Columbus, Georgia, at 1932 Wynnton Road, the company's core mission is to offer financial protection to millions of policyholders globally. Aflac pays cash benefits directly to policyholders when they experience covered illnesses or injuries, helping them manage out-of-pocket expenses and focus on recovery rather than financial strain.

Aflac operates through two main segments: Aflac Japan and Aflac U.S. Its product portfolio includes a wide range of supplemental insurance offerings such as accident, disability, critical illness, cancer, hospital indemnity, life, dental, and vision insurance. In the U.S., Aflac's products are designed to complement major medical or primary insurance plans by covering expenses not typically reimbursed. Aflac Japan is a leading provider of cancer and medical insurance in that market. The company distributes its products primarily through independent agents, often at worksites, and also through digital channels.

Led by CEO Dan Amos since 1990, Aflac is recognized as the largest provider of supplemental insurance in the United States and holds a leading position in supplemental health insurance in both the U.S. and Japan. The company maintains high brand recognition, notably through its iconic Aflac Duck mascot. While a significant portion of its U.S. policies are issued through employer-sponsored plans, Aflac is adapting to evolving employment patterns, including the rise of gig work. Aflac has been consistently named one of the World's Most Ethical Companies for 19 consecutive years.
