Group From 1869 To 1998

London & Manchester Assurance Co Ltd

Categories: Commerce

From the picture source website: "London & Manchester Group first saw the light of day back in 1869 when it was registered as the London and Manchester Industrial Assurance Co. Limited. The word 'Industrial' was dropped from the name in 1915, and in 1981 it became London and Manchester Group Plc. The Exeter-based business was acquired by Friends Provident in 1998." And in 2009 they in turn were taken over by Resolution Limited.

2015: For a few years now we've been receiving emails from people who have old policies with this company and want to claim against them, or something. Please don't write to us - we only collect memorials, we do not run an insurance company! We cannot help you.
