Home Financials  Summary Ameriprise Financial generates exceptional returns on equity with an ROE of over 50%, a level nearly unmatched among diversified financial services peers. Ameriprise Financial frequently trades at a discount to peers because it is often classified as a Life Insurer, despite that business accounting for only 16% of earnings. Ameriprise Financial launched its Signature Wealth offering, a unified managed account that allows advisors to select institutional investment models for their clients.
