Standard life 1825-2000 - M. Moss
Standard Life, the Largest Mutual Life assurance company in Europe, has its origins in Edinburgh in 1825. Originally called the Life Insurance Company of Scotland, it changed its name to Standard Life in 1832. Over the next three decades the company extended its activities to England, Ireland and Canada. With the establishment in 1845 of a sister company, Colonial Life, life assurance was made available to residents in every part of the world. Standard Life merged with Colonial Life in 1866 and between then and the end of the century offices were opened in Europe, South America, India and the Far East.
This is a story of an enterprise which, with every change in circumstance, has endeavoured to maximise returns to policy-holders by lending first to agricultural estates and later to local authorities, to shipbuilding companies, to farmers in New Zealand and America, to railways at home and abroad, and to property developers.
