About The Segal Company

In 2004, The Segal Company celebrated our 65th anniversary. As a private employee-owned actuarial and consulting firm, The Segal Company is a completely independent organization. Our independence allows us to provide totally unbiased consulting services for our clients.

A Tradition of Innovation

Founded in 1939, early in the development of employee benefit plans in American industry, The Segal Company first conceived, designed and introduced many innovations that are now widely accepted benefit practices. The Segal Company's commitment to continued creativity is confirmed in our Statement of Values and Vision Statement.

Consulting Approach

The Segal Company's consulting philosophy and overall approach is highlighted by our commitment to our clients. We are dedicated to providing clients with creative, timely, responsive and accurate consulting services which will add clear value. We enter each client assignment with no preconceptions regarding what will or will not be implemented. Instead, our goal is to bring to the assignment a multi-disciplinary range of talent in an effort to understand the client's goals, objectives and financial concerns.

We view each assignment as a unique opportunity to find the best solution for the client. We form partnerships with our clients to determine the scope of our work. We manage projects effectively and on time. Our recommendations are consistent with each client's operation and goals. We work to understand not only our clients' needs, but also their own capabilities. Many clients have internal expertise and talent that we do not want to duplicate. Moreover, we seek opportunities to make our clients more self-sufficient. We maintain an open and constant dialogue with our clients.

At The Segal Company, we maintain our client relationships by providing timely and quality services at the highest level. The following are among the ways we ensure that we can meet our high standards for quality consulting:

• Use of a team approach to consulting,
• Thorough peer review,
• Annual client satisfaction surveys conducted by senior managers,
• National professional standards and training for actuarial and consulting staff and
• Investment in company-wide education on quality control.
