History
Originally named Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association of America, TIAA was created in 1918 by Andrew Carnegie, a Scottish-American industrialist, business magnate, and philanthropist known for building Carnegie Hall in New York, NY,[2] and for the 2,509 public and university libraries whose construction he funded across the U.S. and beyond.
TIAA reached a deal to buy EverBank for $2.5 billion in cash on August 8, 2016.[3] On June 12, 2017, the company officially became "TIAA FSB Holdings, Inc. formerly known as EverBank Financial Corp". Nearly a year later, TIAA began rebranding all of its banking activities under the TIAA Bank name on June 4, 2018.[1]
On Nov 3, 2022, TIAA entered into an agreement to spin off TIAA Bank to private interests.[4]
Community involvement
Since 2018, the bank has donated nearly 9 million dollars to over 100 charitable organizations based upon 4 main pillars: education, environment, hunger and community building. TIAA Bank has given support to organizations such as the following:
- Habitat for Humanity
- Ronald McDonald House Charities
- United Way
- Take Stock in Children
- Junior Achievement
- The McKenzie Noelle Wilson Foundation
TIAA Bank Field
Originally named Jacksonville Municipal Stadium, and later Alltel Stadium, the home of the Jacksonville Jaguars got a new name on the eve of the 2010 training camp, when EverBank Financial Corp and the Jaguars introduced EverBank Field on July 27, 2010. The partnership included a five-year naming rights agreement, which was extended by another 10 years in 2014.
On June 4, 2018, EverBank became TIAA Bank and the stadium was renamed TIAA Bank Field.
