The American Retirement Initiative is a national discussion about how to improve the quality of retirement planning for all Americans. We showcase the research of the most prominent retirement thought leaders and visionaries, share news and the latest articles about the latest trends in retirement planning, and present a forum for discussion, so that thought leaders and policy makers know what you think. Most importantly, we strive to give you the insight you need to more effectively plan for the rest of your life. We want you to have the tools you need to improve the quality of your life later by more effective planning now.

Keith J. Green is an expert and leading consultant on retirement policy formulation, plan design, plan implementation, and retirement education. He has worked with hundreds of leading organizations and thousands of individuals who are preparing for retirement. He responded to critical gaps in the U.S. retirement system by founding the American Retirement Initiative in which he serves as president. The American Retirement Initiative provides thought leadership on the retirement landscape in general, facilitates best practice sharing, and offers consulting to both public and private sector clients.. He brings to this role over 20 years of experience in executive roles for leading financial services companies offering retirement solutions to individuals and organizations.

In his early career with TIAA-CREF, Keith worked as an Institutional Consultant, collaborating with colleges and universities on their retirement plan designs. Keith then joined Aetna Financial Services as a Regional Manager in its Michigan office and ultimately became vice president for its Southeastern Region.

After ING’s acquisition of Aetna Financial Services in 2000, Keith held progressively responsible roles, including Senior Vice President of Strategic Marketing and Senior Vice President of Domestic Emerging Markets. He was then appointed Senior Vice President and Executive-on-Loan to Hemisphere, Inc., an organization tasked with bringing the headquarters of the Free Trade Area of the Americas to Atlanta. Much of his time during that period was spent in Latin American and the Caribbean capitols promoting trade and working on economic development issues with diplomats and democratically elected leaders.

In January 2006, Mr. Green was appointed Vice President of Government Relations for ING, responsible for ING’s state government relations in twenty US states. He held this role until 20ll when he founded the American Retirement Initiative.
