Retirement Solutions

Literature

The Apollo Approach

Apollo’s integrated platform was built around empowering retirees. We strive to be the leading provider of retirement solutions for institutions, employers and individuals. 

Strong tailwinds including aging populations, the shift from defined benefit to defined contribution plans, and an investment landscape with increasingly hard-to-find excess return, drive demand for Apollo’s offerings across fixed income replacement and alternative investment solutions. Through our integrated platform we serve:

Defined Contribution Plans

Accelerating private market and guaranteed income solutions for 401(k)s

Companies

Offering pension group annuities to maintain retirees’ benefits

Institutions

Investing on behalf of public pensions and the individuals they serve

Individuals and Families

Providing both guaranteed income retirement products and long-term wealth generation solutions in the private markets

Our Integrated Platform

Apollo continues to provide private investment capabilities designed for public pensions, families, institutions and defined contribution plans that seek excess returns. It also manages the liability needs of retirement services companies like Athene, for which we source high-quality, long-duration investments across private and public global markets.

In 2022, Apollo merged with Athene to further align our asset management business with retirement services. For nearly 15 years, Athene has provided retirement income solutions for individuals and corporations through principal-protected investment products.
