March 12 2024 - 9:00AM
Business Wire
Ameriprise Financial (NYSE: AMP) today announced that it has
been named an Institutional Financial Advisor of the National
Football League Players Association (NFLPA), the official union of
professional football players. With this program, designated
Ameriprise financial advisors will work one-on-one with current and
retired NFL players to provide holistic financial advice and help
them reach their goals in their years on and off the field.
The NFLPA established its Institutional Financial Advisors
Program in 2019 to connect active and retired players with
reputable wealth management firms that can help them plan for and
live out their financial legacies. Ameriprise was chosen because of
the firm’s focus on serving clients through goal-based advice and
its commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion. The firm also
has a wide range of products and services to address the unique
financial situations of NFL players. Ameriprise is the sixth
financial institution to be selected to this program.
“We are excited to have Ameriprise join the Institutional
Financial Advisor program and help even more players achieve
financial stability and confidence,” said Dana Shuler, senior
director of the NFLPA’s Player Affairs Department. “Ameriprise
is nationally recognized for its commitment to providing
customized, empowering advice to clients of all backgrounds,
including professional athletes, which makes this a win for
everyone involved.”
“We are delighted to be selected by the NFLPA to work with its
members. Ameriprise is well-positioned to provide current and
former players with the advice they need to confidently plan for
their future,” said Bill Williams, Executive Vice President and
President of the Ameriprise Independent Channel. “Numerous
Ameriprise advisors have proudly advised NFLPA members going back
many years, and this program expands on those existing
relationships.”
“NFLPA player members work hard to achieve the pinnacle level in
their field, and as an NFLPA Institutional Financial Advisor, we
work hard to help players grow and protect the wealth they’ve
earned along the way,” said Marcy Keckler, CFP®, CRPCTM, RICP®,
Senior Vice President of Financial Advice Strategy at
Ameriprise. “Our advisors huddle one-on-one with players to discuss
how they can create a lasting legacy for themselves, their
families, and their communities. Players face unique financial
circumstances including complex contracts, opportunities to give
back to causes important to them, potential risk of injury and the
desire for a ‘second chapter’ of their careers following their time
on the field. Ameriprise is excellently positioned to help them
along the way.”

About the NFL Players Association
The National Football League Players Association is the union
for professional football players in the National Football League.
Established in 1956, the NFLPA has a long history of assuring
proper recognition and representation of players’ interests. The
NFLPA has shown that it will do whatever is necessary to assure
that the rights of players are protected—including ceasing to be a
union, if necessary, as it did in 1989. In 1993, the NFLPA again
was officially recognized as the union representing the players and
negotiated a landmark Collective Bargaining Agreement with the NFL.
The current CBA will govern the sport through the 2030 NFL season.
