We will issue subordinated debt securities in one or more series under an indenture, which we refer to as the &#8220;subordinated indenture,&#8221; to be entered into, among us, the Subsidiary Guarantor, as guarantor, and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee. In this prospectus, we refer to the senior indenture and the subordinated indenture as &#8220;the indentures,&#8221; and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., in its capacity as trustee under each indenture and under the junior subordinated indenture (as defined below), as the &#8220;trustee&#8221; or the &#8220;trustees,&#8221; as the context requires. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">The following description of the terms of the indentures is a summary. It summarizes only those portions of the indentures which we believe will be most important to your decision to invest in our debt securities. You should keep in mind, however, that it is the indentures, and not this summary, which define your rights as a holder of our debt securities. There may be other provisions in the indentures which are also important to you. You should read the indentures for a full description of the terms of the debt securities. The senior indenture and the form of subordinated indenture are filed as exhibits to the registration statement that includes this prospectus. See &#8220;Where You Can Find More Information&#8221; for information on how to obtain copies of the senior indenture and the subordinated indenture. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">We are an insurance holding company with no direct operations whose assets include all of the outstanding shares of common stock of the Subsidiary Guarantor. The Subsidiary Guarantor is an intermediary holding company with no direct operations whose assets include all of the outstanding shares of Principal Life and other subsidiaries. As a consequence, our ability to satisfy our obligations under the debt securities and the Subsidiary Guarantor&#8217;s ability to satisfy its obligations under the subsidiary guarantee will depend in large part on the ability of our insurance company and other subsidiaries to declare and distribute dividends or to advance money in the form of intercompany loans. Our insurance company subsidiaries are subject to various statutory and regulatory restrictions, applicable to insurance companies generally, that limit the amount of cash dividends, loans and advances that those subsidiaries may pay. Regulations relating to capital requirements affecting some of our other subsidiaries also restrict their ability to pay dividends and other distributions and make loans to us. The payment of dividends from Principal Life to the Subsidiary Guarantor is subject to restrictions set forth in the insurance laws of the State of Iowa. As a result, our cash flows and ability to service our obligations, including the debt securities, are dependent upon the earnings of our subsidiaries, distributions of those earnings to us and other payments or distributions of funds by our subsidiaries to us. In addition, the debt securities will be effectively subordinated to all existing and future liabilities of our subsidiaries, including those of the Subsidiary Guarantor, and the subsidiary guarantee will be effectively subordinated to all existing and future liabilities of the Subsidiary Guarantor&#8217;s subsidiaries, including obligations to policyholders. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">We may offer junior subordinated debt securities. We refer to the junior subordinated debt securities in this prospectus as the &#8220;junior subordinated debt securities.&#8221; The junior subordinated securities will be unsecured, subordinate and junior in right of payment, as described in the junior subordinated indenture, to all of our senior indebtedness as defined in the junior subordinated indenture, which includes all debt issued under our senior indenture or subordinated indenture. </font>
        </div>
        <div style="text-indent:20pt; margin-top:6pt; width:456pt; line-height:11.5pt;">
          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">We will issue the junior subordinated debt securities in one or more series under an indenture, which we refer to as the &#8220;junior subordinated indenture,&#8221; entered into among us, the Subsidiary Guarantor, as guarantor, and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee, dated as of May&#160;7, 2015. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">We may from time to time and without notice to, or consent of, the holders of the junior subordinated debt securities, create and issue additional junior subordinated debt securities under the junior subordinated indenture having the same terms and conditions as existing junior subordinated debt securities, so that such additional junior subordinated debt securities may be consolidated and form a single series with existing junior subordinated debt securities and have the same terms as to ranking, status, redemption and otherwise as existing junior subordinated debt securities. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">The following description of the terms of the junior subordinated debt securities is a summary. It summarizes only those terms of the junior subordinated debt securities which we believe will be most important to your decision to invest in our junior subordinated debt securities. You should keep in mind, however, that it is the junior subordinated indenture, and not this summary, which defines your rights as a holder of our junior subordinated debt securities. There may be other provisions in the junior subordinated indenture which are also important to you. You should read the junior subordinated indenture for a full description of the terms of the junior subordinated debt securities. The junior subordinated indenture is filed as an exhibit to the registration statement that includes this prospectus. See &#8220;Where You Can Find More Information&#8221; for information on how to obtain a copy of the junior subordinated indenture. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">The junior subordinated debt securities will be unsecured obligations and will rank equally in right of payment with all of our other junior subordinated obligations, including, unless otherwise specified in the prospectus supplement relating to such series or such securities, all other series of junior subordinated debt securities.

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">We are an insurance holding company with no direct operations whose assets include all of the outstanding shares of common stock of the Subsidiary Guarantor. The Subsidiary Guarantor is an intermediary holding company with no direct operations whose assets include all of the outstanding shares of Principal Life and other subsidiaries. As a consequence, our ability to satisfy our obligations under the junior subordinated debt securities and the Subsidiary Guarantor&#8217;s ability to satisfy its obligations under the subsidiary guarantee will depend in large part on the ability of our insurance company and other subsidiaries to declare and distribute dividends or to advance money in the form of intercompany loans. Our insurance company subsidiaries are subject to various statutory and regulatory restrictions, applicable to insurance companies generally, that limit the amount of cash dividends, loans and advances that those subsidiaries may pay. Regulations relating to capital requirements affecting some of our other subsidiaries also restrict their ability to pay dividends and other distributions and make loans to us. The payment of dividends from Principal Life to the Subsidiary Guarantor is subject to restrictions set forth in the insurance laws of the State of Iowa. As a result, our cash flows and ability to service our obligations, including the junior subordinated debt securities, are dependent upon the earnings of our subsidiaries, distributions of those earnings to us and other payments or distributions of funds by our subsidiaries to us. In addition, the junior subordinated debt securities will be effectively subordinated to all existing and future liabilities of our subsidiaries, including those of the Subsidiary Guarantor, and the subsidiary guarantee will be effectively subordinated to all existing and future liabilities of the Subsidiary Guarantor&#8217;s subsidiaries, including obligations to policyholders. </font>

See &#8220;&#8212;&#160;Subordination&#8221; and the prospectus supplement relating to any offering of securities. </font>

          <font style="font-weight:bold;letter-spacing:-0.2pt;">Common Stock.</font><font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As of December&#160;31, 2022, we had approximately 243.5&#160;million outstanding shares of common stock. The remaining shares of authorized and unissued common stock are available for future issuance without additional stockholder approval. While the additional shares are not designed to deter or prevent a change of control, under some circumstances we could use the additional shares to create voting impediments or to frustrate persons seeking to effect a takeover or otherwise gain control by, for example, issuing those shares in private placements to purchasers who might side with our board of directors in opposing a hostile takeover bid. </font>
        </div>
        <div style="text-indent:20pt; margin-top:8pt; width:456pt; line-height:11.5pt;">
          <font style="font-weight:bold;letter-spacing:-0.2pt;">Preferred Stock.</font><font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Our board of directors has the authority to issue preferred stock in one or more series and to fix the number of shares constituting any such series and the preferences, limitations and relative rights, including dividend rights, dividend rate, voting rights, terms of redemption, redemption price or prices, conversion rights and liquidation preferences of the shares constituting any series, without any further vote or action by our stockholders. The existence of authorized but unissued preferred stock could reduce our attractiveness as a target for an unsolicited takeover bid since we could, for example, issue shares of preferred stock to parties who might oppose such a takeover bid or shares that contain terms the potential acquiror may find unattractive. This may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control, may discourage bids for the common stock at a premium over the market price of the common stock, and may adversely affect the market price of, and the voting and other rights of the holders of, common stock. </font>

          <font style="font-style:italic;font-weight:bold;letter-spacing:-0.2pt;">Classified Board of Directors and Removal of Directors.</font><font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Our certificate of incorporation provides that the directors shall be divided into three classes, as nearly equal in number as possible, with the term of office of each class to be three&#160;years. The classes serve staggered terms, such that the term of one class of directors expires each year. Any effort to obtain control of our board of directors by causing the election of a majority of the board of directors may require more time than would be required without a staggered election structure. Our certificate of incorporation also provides that directors may be removed only for cause at a meeting of stockholders by a vote of a majority of the shares then entitled to vote. This provision may have the effect of slowing or impeding a change in membership of our board of directors that would effect a change of control. </font>

          <font style="font-style:italic;font-weight:bold;letter-spacing:-0.2pt;">Restriction on Maximum Number of Directors and Filling of Vacancies on our Board of Directors.</font><font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Our by-laws provide that the number of directors shall be fixed and increased or decreased from time to time by resolution of the board of directors, but the board of directors shall at no time consist of fewer than three directors. Stockholders can only remove a director for cause by a vote of a majority of the shares entitled to vote, in which case the vacancy caused by such removal may be filled at such meeting by the stockholders entitled to vote for the election of the director so removed. Any vacancy on the board of directors, including a vacancy resulting from an increase in the number of directors or resulting from a removal for cause where the stockholders have not filled the vacancy, may be filled by a majority of the directors then in office, although less than a quorum. If the vacancy is not so filled, it shall be filled by the stockholders at the next annual meeting of stockholders. The stockholders are not permitted to fill vacancies between annual meetings except where the vacancy resulted from a removal for cause. These provisions give incumbent directors significant authority that may have the effect of limiting the ability of stockholders to effect a change in management. </font>

In addition, under the provisions of both our certificate of incorporation and by-laws, action may not be taken by written consent of stockholders; rather, any action taken by the stockholders must be effected at a duly called meeting. The Chairman of the board of directors, chief executive officer, or, under some circumstances, the president or any vice president, and the board of directors may call a special meeting. These provisions make it more procedurally difficult for a stockholder to place a proposal or nomination on the meeting agenda or to take action without a meeting, and therefore may reduce the likelihood that a stockholder will seek to take independent action to replace directors or seek a stockholder vote with respect to other matters that are not supported by management. </font>

          <font style="font-style:italic;font-weight:bold;letter-spacing:-0.2pt;">Proxy Access.</font><font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Our by-laws contain a &#8220;proxy access&#8221; provision that permits a stockholder or group of up to 20 stockholders owning 3% or more of our outstanding common stock continuously for at least three&#160;years to nominate one or more candidates for election to the board of directors, and requires us to include such candidate(s) in our proxy materials for the meeting at which such election will be held, provided that the stockholder(s) and the nominee(s) satisfy the requirements specified in our by-laws. The maximum number of nominees that may be included in the proxy materials pursuant to the proxy access provision may not exceed the greater of two directors or 20% of the number of directors in office. An eligible stockholder proposing to nominate a person for election to the board of directors through the proxy access provision must provide us with a notice requesting the inclusion of the director nominee in our proxy materials and other required information not less than 120&#160;days nor more than 150&#160;days prior to the first anniversary of the date of the proxy statement delivered in connection with the immediately preceding year&#8217;s annual meeting of stockholders (or, in the event that the annual meeting is called for a date that is not within 30&#160;days before or after such anniversary date, no later than the close of business on the day that is 180&#160;days prior to such other meeting date or the tenth day following the date such other meeting date is first publicly announced or disclosed, whichever first occurs). </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">Our certificate of incorporation contains a provision that is designed to limit our directors&#8217; liability. Specifically, directors will not be held liable to Principal Financial Group, Inc. for monetary damages for breach of their fiduciary duty as a director, except to the extent that this limitation on or exemption from liability is not permitted by the DGCL and any amendments to that law. </font>
        </div>
        <div style="text-indent:20pt; margin-top:8pt; width:456pt; line-height:11.5pt;">
          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">The principal effect of the limitation on liability provision is that a stockholder is unable to prosecute an action for monetary damages against a director of Principal Financial Group, Inc. unless the stockholder can demonstrate a basis for liability for which indemnification is not available under the DGCL. This provision, however, does not eliminate or limit director liability arising in connection with causes of action brought under the federal securities laws. Our certificate of incorporation does not eliminate our directors&#8217; duty of care. The inclusion of this provision in our certificate of incorporation may, however, discourage or deter stockholders or management from bringing a lawsuit against directors for a breach of their fiduciary duties, even though such an action, if successful, might otherwise have benefited Principal Financial Group, Inc. and our stockholders. This provision should not affect the availability of equitable remedies such as injunction or rescission based upon a director&#8217;s breach of the duty of care. </font>

We are required to indemnify our directors and officers for all judgments, fines, settlements, legal fees and other expenses incurred in connection with pending, threatened or completed legal proceedings because of the director&#8217;s or officer&#8217;s position with Principal Financial Group, Inc. or another entity that the director or officer serves at our request, subject to various conditions, and to advance funds to our directors and officers to enable them to defend against such proceedings. To receive indemnification, the director or officer must have been successful in the legal proceeding or have acted in good faith and in what was reasonably believed to be a lawful manner in the best interest of Principal Financial Group, Inc. </font>

This requirement exceeds the majority vote of the outstanding stock that would otherwise be required by the DGCL for the repeal or amendment of such provisions of the certificate of incorporation. Our by-laws may be amended by the board of directors or by the vote of holders of three-fourths of the shares then entitled to vote.

We have not made that election. Section&#160;203 can affect the ability of an &#8220;interested stockholder&#8221; of Principal Financial Group, Inc. to engage in business combinations, such as mergers, consolidations or acquisitions of additional shares of Principal Financial Group, Inc., for a period of three&#160;years following the time that the stockholder becomes an &#8220;interested stockholder.&#8221; An &#8220;interested stockholder&#8221; is defined to include persons owning directly or indirectly 15% or more of the outstanding voting stock of a corporation. The provisions of Section&#160;203 are not applicable in some circumstances, including those in which (a)&#160;the business combination or transaction which results in the stockholder becoming an &#8220;interested stockholder&#8221; is approved by the corporation&#8217;s board of directors prior to the time the stockholder becomes an &#8220;interested stockholder&#8221; or (b)&#160;the &#8220;interested stockholder,&#8221; upon consummation of such transaction, owns at least 85% of the voting stock of the corporation outstanding prior to such transaction. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">State insurance laws and other related state laws could be a significant deterrent to any person interested in acquiring control of Principal Financial Group, Inc. The insurance holding company and other insurance laws of many states regulate changes of control of insurance holding companies, such as Principal Financial Group, Inc. A change of control is generally presumed upon acquisitions of 10% or more of voting securities. The Iowa and Arizona insurance holding company laws and other Delaware, Vermont and California laws and regulations, which are applicable to us, require filings in connection with proposed acquisitions of control of domestic insurance companies and other regulated entities. These insurance holding company laws and other laws and regulations prohibit a person from acquiring direct or indirect control of an insurer or other regulated entity incorporated in the relevant jurisdiction without prior regulatory approval. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">We may elect to offer depositary shares representing receipts for fractional interests in debt securities, junior subordinated debt securities or preferred stock.

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">We will deposit the debt securities, junior subordinated debt securities or shares of any series of preferred stock represented by depositary shares under a deposit agreement between us and a depositary, which we will name in the applicable prospectus supplement. Subject to the terms of the deposit agreement, as an owner of a depositary share, you will be entitled, in proportion to the applicable fraction of a debt security, junior subordinated debt security or share of preferred stock represented by the depositary share, to all the rights and preferences of the debt security, junior subordinated debt security or preferred stock, as the case may be, represented by the depositary share, including, as the case may be, interest, dividend, voting, conversion, redemption, sinking fund, repayment at maturity, subscription and liquidation rights. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">The following description of the terms of the deposit agreement is a summary. It summarizes only those terms of the deposit agreement that we believe will be most important to your decision to invest in our depositary shares. You should keep in mind, however, that it is the deposit agreement, and not this summary, which defines your rights as a holder of depositary shares. There may be other provisions in the deposit agreement that are also important to you. You should read the deposit agreement for a full description of the terms of the depositary shares. The form of the deposit agreement is filed as an exhibit to the registration statement that includes this prospectus. See &#8220;Where You Can Find More Information&#8221; for information on how to obtain a copy of the deposit agreement. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">The depositary will distribute all payments of interest, cash dividends or other cash distributions received on the debt securities, junior subordinated debt securities or preferred stock, as the case may be, to you in proportion to the number of depositary shares that you own. </font>
        </div>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">In the event of a distribution other than in cash, the depositary will distribute property received by it to you in an equitable manner, unless the depositary determines that it is not feasible to make a distribution. In that case the depositary may sell the property and distribute the net proceeds from the sale to you. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">If we redeem a debt security, junior subordinated debt security or series of preferred stock represented by depositary shares, the depositary will redeem your depositary shares from the proceeds received by the depositary resulting from the redemption. The redemption price per depositary share will be equal to the applicable fraction of the redemption price per debt security, junior subordinated debt security or share of preferred stock, as the case may be, payable in relation to the redeemed series of debt securities, junior subordinated debt securities or preferred stock. Whenever we redeem debt securities, junior subordinated debt securities or shares of preferred stock held by the depositary, the depositary will redeem as of the same redemption date the number of depositary shares representing, as the case may be, the debt securities, junior subordinated debt securities or shares of preferred stock redeemed. If fewer than all the depositary shares are to be redeemed, the depositary shares to be redeemed will be selected by lot, proportionately or by any other equitable method as the depositary may determine. </font>

There may be other provisions in the warrant agreement and the warrant certificate relating to the warrants which are also important to you.

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">Until the distribution of the securities is completed, rules of the SEC may limit the ability of underwriters and other participants in the offering to bid for and purchase the securities. As an exception to these rules, the underwriters in certain circumstances are permitted to engage in certain transactions that stabilize the price of the securities. Such transactions consist of bids or purchases for the purpose of pegging, fixing or maintaining the price of the securities. If the underwriters create a short position in the securities in connection with the offering, i.e., if they sell more securities than are set forth on the cover page of the applicable prospectus supplement, the underwriters may reduce that short position by purchasing securities in the open market. The underwriters also may impose a penalty bid on certain underwriters. This means that if the underwriters purchase the securities in the open market to reduce the underwriters&#8217; short position or to stabilize the price of the securities, they may reclaim the amount of the selling concession from the underwriters who sold those securities as part of the offering. In general, purchases of a security for the purpose of stabilization or to reduce a short position could cause the price of the security to be higher than it might be in the absence of such purchases. The imposition of a penalty bid might also have an effect on the price of a security to the extent that it were to discourage resales of the security. </font>

If we so indicate in the applicable prospectus supplement, in connection with those derivative transactions, the third parties may sell securities covered by this prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement, including in short sale transactions, or may lend securities in order to facilitate short sale transactions by others. If so, the third party may use securities pledged by us or borrowed from us or others to settle those sales or to close out any related open borrowings of securities, and may use securities received from us in settlement of those derivative or hedging transactions to close out any related open borrowings of securities. The third party in such sale transactions will be an underwriter and will be identified in the applicable prospectus supplement (or a post-effective amendment to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part). </font>
