ANNUAL REPORT
The American College
of Financial Services
2015
Dear Friend,
By just about any measure, 2015 was an
extremely successful year for The American
College of Financial Services thanks in large
part to the consistent commitment of you
and our many other supporters.
• We served 26,707 students—an increase of 8.8% over 2014.
• RICP®, our flagship retirement income program, saw student enrollment grow to 8,533.
• Our first PhD students are moving into the dissertation phase of their work.
• Total scholarships awarded through the Penn Mutual Center for Veterans Affairs exceeded $1 million.
• We received nearly $9 million in charitable gifts and pledges, including a pledge for the largest gift in
the history of The American College of Financial Services.
To say I am proud to lead this institution is an understatement, but the real joy for me during my first full
year in this role has come from the relationships those of us at The College enjoy with so many exceptional
individuals. The American College of Financial Services is about heritage and about people like you who
care deeply about this profession. I had the privilege of meeting with students, alumni, and friends at events
across the country, such as the President’s Tour, the Knowledge Summit and Alumni LIVE. Their pride in our
institution was palpable, and they were eager to share that enthusiasm with me. They also shared the kinds
of successes that matter most—stories about how they are putting knowledge gained through The College’s
offerings to work in their communities. One by one, they are elevating the financial services profession, most
often by building sustainable advantages for their clients.
This year reminded me that The American College of Financial Services is much more than the programs we
offer. There is a sense of ongoing, important work—work that matters now and matters across generations.
The torch is passed to us for a while, and we are responsible for nurturing the flame until we are ready to pass
a stronger torch to the next generation of leaders. This is our time, and I want to thank you for partnering with
us at this important moment as we strengthen that flame together.
There are so many highlights from 2015 that make this flame even brighter. The record-breaking RICP®
designation, for example, is part of a bigger retirement planning success story that we are featuring in this
Annual Report. I also encourage you to read about a transformative gift from philanthropist Cary M. Maguire
and the appointment of Michael Finke, PhD, CFP®, a nationally renowned educator and researcher, to the role
of Dean and Chief Academic Officer.
Another significant accomplishment in 2015 was our increased commitment to working constructively with
other organizations in the profession. We held a national web event on retirement planning with the Society of
Financial Service Professionals, have instituted content partnerships with AALU and GAMA International, and
are partnering with FPA, WIFS, and other groups. We are truly better together in making a positive impact on
the profession!
1 | The American College of Financial Services
We plan to expand upon 2015 successes, with alumni networking opportunities across the
country. Collaborative initiatives and events with partner organizations will increase. As a
follow-up to last year’s Knowledge Summit, which brought together a record 3,500 alumni
in Honolulu, be sure to look for details in coming months on our 2017 Knowledge Summit,
which will take place in the Bahamas.
Media interest in The American College of Financial Services was outstanding in 2015. Many
of our faculty, who are sought-after experts in various disciplines, averaged multiple media
contacts per week. This resulted in high-profile coverage in a variety of outlets, from Barron’s
and Fortune to The New York Times. Our professors are also regular contributors to widely read
publications such as Forbes, Investment News and The Wall Street Journal. Research conducted
by our faculty also appears in high-profile academic and practitioner journals such as the
Journal of Financial Planning, Journal of Portfolio Management and The Journal of Financial Services
Professionals. All this raises the visibility of The American College of Financial Services and the
excellent work going on here. I am sure the visibility of The College will continue to grow,
along with our reputation, in 2016.
These are exciting times for The American College of Financial Services, and I am confident
2016 will be another great year. Together we will continue to expand The College’s footprint—
professionalizing financial services, and taking advantage of opportunities to bring our
respected knowledge, ethics, experience, and leadership into other financial services sectors.
At the end of the day, it is all about the people by our side, and those we serve. You simply
cannot find a finer group of people than our staff, students, and supporters like you. It is a
privilege to serve as President and CEO.
Warm regards,
Robert R. Johnson, PhD, CFA®, CAIA®

Leading The Way Through
The National Retirement Crisis
2015 was an amazing year at The American College of
Financial Services, which elevated its status as the national
leader in retirement-focused research and education.
The College’s star-studded team of retirement experts
celebrated many notable achievements, including one that
starts with an impressive number: 3,894. That is how many
individuals enrolled in 2015 to become a Retirement Income
Certified Professional® (RICP ®). That is an average
of 10 new students every day.
These numbers reflect a growing appreciation among
financial services professionals that The College is the
source for the latest thinking and techniques to serve their
clients’ changing financial needs. The RICP® success also
exemplifies the remarkable work being done at The College—
strengthening its reputation as the go-to retirement income
resource, and leading national conversations about this
important subject.
With an estimated 10,000 Americans reaching retirement
age every day for the next 16 years, advisor education is a
critical need in the retirement income planning profession.
The American College of Financial Services remains
committed to developing and delivering innovative programs
that meet the needs of the changing financial landscape
and enable advisors to access the latest research-supported
knowledge about the complexities of retirement.
“I am very proud of what we are accomplishing,” said
Robert R. Johnson, PhD, CFA®, CAIA®, President and CEO
of The American College of Financial Services. “We have
a wonderful team, including faculty, staff, and external
friends who are passionate supporters. Their generosity and
commitment have enabled us to build a strong pracademic
(combined academic and practitioner) foundation, upon
which we are now building expertise in specialized disciplines
like retirement income planning.”
Johnson recalls being extremely impressed when he was
hired as president in late 2014. He found a synergistic
confluence of top-flight talent at The College. At the
same time, the importance of retirement income planning
continued to grow as a hot topic across the country. As the
retirement landscape has changed with the shift to defined
contribution plans, the reduction in employer-provided
benefits and the challenging low-interest investment
environment, everyone from financial advisors and their
clients to economists and the media realize the need for
better strategies, tools, and training.
“There was, and still is, a crying need in the economy
for better retirement income planning,” Johnson added.
“There is a retirement crisis in this country. The baby
boomer demographics, combined with advances in medical
science, mean we have more people living longer than ever.
They need specialized help with decisions that can really
impact the quality of life in retirement.”
The collaborative environment at The American College of
Financial Services has helped fuel successes in the specialized
retirement field. According to Professor of Taxation David
Littell, JD, ChFC®, there were 56 practitioners, academics
and experts across the profession who helped to build
the RICP ® program. Faculty continues to update the
curriculum to reflect the latest thinking and meet current
needs among financial service professionals. Feedback

Overall, it was an inspiring
program. I was extremely

has taken a lead in the

The College Receives a
Transformative
Gift
Philanthropist Cary M. Maguire, widely
known for his support of ethical research and
educational programs, has contributed a recent
and transformative gift of $5 million to The
American College of Financial Services. This gift
will serve as a stimulus to upgrade the academic
facilities of The College.
To date, Maguire has donated a total of $7.8
million to The College, having previously
contributed for the establishment of fellowships
in applied ethics and for the endowment of the
Center for Ethics in Financial Services, which bears
his name. This magnificent gift provides a major
source of funding for The College’s envisioned
growth of its renowned programs and services.
“It is gratifying when one of our leading
supporters is moved by the quality work our
Cary M. Maguire
faculty and professional staff provides,” said
Dr. Robert R. Johnson, President and CEO of The American College of Financial Services. “Cary’s dedication to the study of
ethics in business and financial services is evident through his philanthropy, and we are thrilled that our vision for the future
resonates with him.”
With Maguire’s contribution, The American College of Financial Services has already begun to explore its options for
expanded space. Students will benefit from a state-of-the-art facility that will attract and retain the best and brightest
faculty and professional staff, provide the latest in educational technology for both distance and on-site learning, reach a
new generation of financial advisors and extend its extraordinary intellectual bandwidth through a tangible presence in the
global community.
Cary M. Maguire is Chairman and President of Maguire Oil Company, Maguire Energy Company, Chair of Components
Corporation of America and Staco, Inc. Maguire held leadership positions on the National Petroleum Council and the
Executive Committee of the Mid-Continental Oil and Gas Association.
For nearly two decades, James A. Mitchell, CLU®, ChFC®, a member of the Board of Trustees,
along with his wife Linda, have provided remarkable support to The American College of
Financial Services and, in particular, to ethics education. Ten years ago, they generously provided
funds to create the James A. and Linda R. Mitchell Forum on Ethical Leadership in Financial
Services. Their generosity continued in 2014 when Jim and Linda informed The College of their
intended gift of $4 million through their estate in the support of the Cary M. Maguire Center for
Ethics in Financial Services. Jim, a longtime friend of Mr. Maguire, honored Mr. Maguire’s gift
by notifying The College that we will receive $1 million of their bequest during their lifetime to
support the institution’s plans to expand its facilities.

understand the ethics of working with increased health and
genetic information, and integrate biomedical advances
and financial planning that focuses on health expectancies
and longer lifespans. Financial services companies and their
advisors, and by extension all of the customers they serve,
will benefit from the M Center’s work as a strong advocate
for living longer, more secure lives.

The American College of Financial Services proudly
announces the appointment of Dr. Michael Finke, a nationally
renowned educator and researcher in the financial services
profession, as Dean and Chief Academic Officer. Dr. Finke, a
professor and Director of Retirement Planning and Living in
the Department of Personal Financial Planning at Texas Tech

a decade of experience in academic leadership, and a
national reputation as one of the foremost thought

Among the most prolific authors in financial planning
journals, Dr. Finke has published more than 50 peer-reviewed
articles. He has also been widely quoted in many of the
nation’s leading consumer publications, including The Wall
Street Journal, The New York Times, Time, and Money Magazine.
His research questioning the “4 percent rule” in the Journal
of Financial Planning with The College’s professor, Dr. Wade
Pfau, won the 2014 Montgomery Warschauer Award for the
most influential article in the Journal of Financial Planning. Dr.
Finke was also selected to present his research on financial
literacy and aging at the 2015 MIT Center for Finance and
Policy conference.
In addition to conducting research and advising students,
Dr. Finke writes the monthly “Finke on Finance” column
for Research Magazine in which he uses research to help
professionals understand timely industry topics. He has also
worked on white paper research projects for companies
including Northwestern Mutual, OneAmerica, MetLife, the
Society of Actuaries, and TIAA-CREF.
“One of the most rewarding parts of my job as an
academician is my ability to work with the many professionals
in this industry who are dedicated to creating better
products and processes, and to help bridge the communities
of academics and financial advisors,“ Finke said.
Dr. Finke received a doctorate in consumer economics from
The Ohio State University in 1998 and in finance from the
University of Missouri in 2011. He also served as the director
of graduate studies at the University of Missouri. Since 2006,
Dr. Finke has directed the PhD program at the Texas Tech
University Department of Personal Financial Planning.

In Memoriam Maxine Niemeyer 1920 - 2015
Trailblazer Maxine Niemeyer, MSM, MSFS, CLU®, ChFC®, died May 29, 2015. Niemeyer
entered the financial services field early in her working career. In 1964, at a time when
few women were part of the profession, she earned her CLU® designation from what is
now The American College of Financial Services. She rose quickly through the ranks of
Detroit’s Business & Estate Financial Coordinators, Inc., becoming a top producer and
then president. Niemeyer went on to serve for over 20 years as the Michigan brokerage
agency manager for Phoenix Mutual Life Insurance.
When the ChFC® designation was developed, Ms. Niemeyer was a student in one
of the first classes to earn that designation. She valued the singular education she
received at The College, as noted in her own words, “In the 70s, our country went
through tremendous problems caused by excessive inflation. The American College
of Financial Services helped me keep up with the subsequent economic changes by
creating and offering the ChFC® courses and designations... Our society is characterized
by a better informed consumer and a significantly more complex and competitive
financial environment. Now more than ever, the CLU® and ChFC® designations make a
difference!”
Maxine Niemeyer became the first woman elected to The American College of Financial
Services Board of Trustees in 1981. The trustees honored her in 1994 with the Solomon
S. Huebner Gold Medal, The College’s highest honor. Niemeyer also served as a leader
on several other boards and received well-deserved recognition over her long career in
the industry.
