History

Ohio National was founded as a stock company in 1909 but converted to mutual company status in 1959. In 1998, Ohio National reorganized as a mutual insurance holding company (Ohio National Mutual Holdings, Inc.), with an intermediate holding company (Ohio National Financial Services, Inc.).

The company signed a contract to take over a facility at Lunken Airport from Executive Jet Management around 2000. [6]

In September 2018, Ohio National announced an exit from most of the annuity market, and the layoff of approximately 300 of its then 1300 employees, [7] as part of a new focused growth strategy targeting the life insurance market. Ohio National continues to sell life insurance, disability insurance, and immediate annuities, and reaffirmed its commitment to the Latin American market. As a result of the change in strategy, Standard & Poor's lowered its rating from A+ to A, while Moody's reaffirmed its A1 rating and A.M. Best reaffirmed its A+ rating. [8]

Philanthropy

In 1987, the company started The Ohio National Foundation, which has donated more than $22 million to nonprofit organizations through 2017. [9] Primary recipients include the United Way; the Duncanson Artist-in-Residence Program at the Taft Museum of Art recognizing contemporary African-American artists; Habitat for Humanity; and the Make-a-Wish Foundation. In 2001, Ohio National started displaying a Victorian Holiday Village on the grounds of the headquarters each winter, and through 2017 has collected over 15 tons of donated food for charity. [10]
