Canada Life Assurance Europe plc

Canada Life was founded in Hamilton, Ontario in 1847 and was Canada's first life insurance company. Since then, the insurer has developed into one of the world's largest and financially strongest provider of life insurances. Canada Life has been a part of the Great-West Lifeco Inc. financial services holding company, one of the largest life insurance companies in Canada, since 2003. It cares for more than 28 million clients around the world.

Canada Life Assurance Europe plc has been operating since the year 2000. We use the international experience and know-how of our group to implement innovative provision solutions in Germany. We have, for example, been able to establish both the essential ability insurance and the provision for critical illness in the market, in addition to our high-performing Unitised-With-Profit provision for old age concepts.
