First time honor reinforces Thrivent’s industry leadership and purpose‑driven approach to financial services.

MINNEAPOLIS (Jan. 21, 2026)—Thrivent, a Fortune 500 financial services company that helps build, grow and protect financial well-being, today announced it has been named to Fortune’s 2026 World’s Most Admired Companies list. This marks the first time Thrivent has received this prestigious recognition.

“Being named one of the World’s Most Admired Companies underscores the progress we’re making to transform Thrivent into a modern, purpose‑based financial services organization,” said Terry Rasmussen, president and chief executive officer of Thrivent. “I’m proud of how our teams are strengthening client relationships, enabling lives of service and faith, and positioning us to serve future generations with even greater clarity, confidence and care — reflecting both our heritage and the momentum we’re building.”

Fortune’s World’s Most Admired Companies list is widely regarded as one of the leading measures of corporate reputation. Each year, executives, directors and analysts evaluate organizations across nine key attributes, including financial soundness, quality of products and services, innovation, social responsibility, long‑term investment value and the strength of their leadership.

Thrivent’s inclusion reflects its ongoing transformation into a modern, purpose‑based financial services company, one that pairs financial expertise with a commitment to generosity, service and community impact.
