Staying True Through the Years
DMS can trace its roots to the 1890s and the founding of its parent organization, the Iowa Savings and Loan League. The company transformed from a stand-alone organization focusing specifically on savings and loan businesses to a diverse association management company with clients in all industries, becoming Diversified Management Services in 1989.
As the company and the market has changed, DMS has stayed true to its compassionate professionalism and its commitment to high levels of service to our clients. We are proud to partner with more than 20 state and national clients. We’re committed to staying true to our mission, so you can stay true to yours.
