A strong heritage
FPI has over 40 years of experience in the international life assurance market. You’re in safe, experienced hands.
We were established on the Isle of Man in 1978, when the Isle of Man welcomed its first offshore life assurance companies. One of these was Lloyd’s Life (Isle of Man), which later became Royal Life International, which became Royal and Sun Alliance International Financial Services, and then in 2002 became Friends Provident International.
In July 2020, IFGL acquired FPI from Aviva. IFGL provides investment, savings and protection solutions to international investors around the world, with 216,000 customers, USD25 billion assets under administration and employs 570 staff as at 31 December 2023.
