Biografie
The Industrial Life Offices Association was founded in 1901 as the Association of Industrial Assurance Companies and Collecting Friendly Societies, by representatives of industrial assurance companies and friendly societies. It acted as a forum for combined action and mutual protection of the Industrial Assurance business. The Association was concerned, in particular, with co-operation to prevent the practice of "transferring", whereby agents poached clients from one company to another, gaining a commission in the process. The Association changed its name to the Industrial Life Offices Association in 1940; and ceased to exist in 1985 when its functions were transferred to the Association of British Insurers.
The Association appears to have been based in its members' offices until it acquired its own offices at 73-76, King William St., EC4 (1950-53); 1, Regent St., SW1 (1954-62); and Aldermary House, 10-15, Queen St., EC4 (1963- ).

The Industrial Life Offices Association was founded in 1901 as the Association of Industrial Assurance Companies and Collecting Friendly Societies, by representatives of industrial assurance companies and friendly societies. It acted as a forum for combined action and mutual protection of the Industrial Assurance business. The Association was concerned, in particular, with co-operation to prevent the practice of "transferring", whereby agents poached clients from one company to another, gaining a commission in the process. The Association changed its name to the Industrial Life Offices Association in 1940; and ceased to exist in 1985 when its functions were transferred to the Association of British Insurers.
The Association appears to have been based in its members' offices until it acquired its own offices at 73-76, King William St., EC4 (1950-53); 1, Regent St., SW1 (1954-62); and Aldermary House, 10-15, Queen St., EC4 (1963- ).
The records were presented to the Manuscripts Section of Guildhall Library by the Association of British Insurers on 11 July 1994 and 12 February 1998. The Guildhall Library Manuscripts Section merged with the London Metropolitan Archives in 2009.
The records of the Industrial Life Offices Association consist of minute books, annual accounts and files. The minute books appear to form an almost complete set, except for those of the Executive, which end in 1977; and those of the Quarterly Meeting, which end in 1956. From 1920, the minute books are annotated with reference numbers, apparently referring to supporting papers, the whereabouts of which are unknown.
Records arranged by MS number, assigned during cataloguing at the Guildhall Library Manuscripts Section.
