The Alliance Assurance Company, of 1 and 2 Bartholomew Lane, was established in 1824. Until 1886 the company was known as the Alliance British and Foreign Life and Fire Assurance Company. In the 19th century, its business was extended to Europe, USA, the West Indies and India. It was acquired by the Sun Insurance Office in 1959.

In 1902 the income from the life and annuity policies of the Imperial Life Insurance Company, the Argus Life Assurance Company and the England Assurance Institution was amalgamated to form the Imperial Life Assurance Fund (see Ms 38911-15).
