        History

        The Society was established in 1823, with a subscribed capital of £1,000,000. By February 1859 it had become the second largest life insurance company in Britain (Insurance Gazette), with a home business concentrated on those in the law, army, navy and church. The Society also attracted a number of celebrity and wealthy clients.

        From 1823-35 the Society was based in Lincoln's Inn Fields, and from 1835-1909 in Fleet Street in the City of London. In 1909/10 the Society was acquired by Phoenix Assurance.
