Our heritage in Ireland means, we’ve been protecting our customers for 190 years.
Over that time we've been supporting communities with essential financial services, like Life Cover … just like we do now. Because things might have changed through the years, but our values haven’t.
Based in Dublin, we’re a fully owned subsidiary of The Royal London Mutual Insurance Society Limited, the largest mutual life, pensions and investment company in the UK. Our parent company’s mutuality, meaning it is customer and member owned with no shareholders, allows us to adopt a mutual mindset. This means we take a longer-term view and focus on providing best customer outcomes.
Whoever you are and whatever your aims, we’ll look to provide you with great long-term value, first class service and support at all times.
Protection products
Needless to say, death or getting seriously ill is not something any of us really like thinking about. But it’s important that you do – if only to make sure that your family is financially protected. Our products help you build your financial resilience and are only available from authorised Financial Brokers, who offer financial advice to help you meet your needs.
Pension products
We understand there's no single recipe for a successful retirement. That's why we believe in the value of advice and always recommend you get tailored advice from a Financial Broker. We offer two personal pension products, designed to deliver value for money and competitive pricing for customers.
If you don't already have a Financial Broker, you can find out more about the value of advice and how to find one here.
When you need us, we’re only a phone call away in our Dublin office.
Foundation and fire marks
We are very proud of our history and legacy in Ireland, and the financial security and safety net we have been able to provide to hundreds of thousands of Irish people over those 190 years.
We've created a book which traces the 190 history of Royal London Ireland all the way back to our roots in 1834 as Caledonian Insurance Company.

Our Parent Company
The Royal London Mutual Insurance Society Limited
Over the years the uncertainty experienced by financial institutions has highlighted the importance of placing your money and trust with a straightforward company you can depend upon. Thankfully, Royal London Ireland offers just that, as it’s owned by the UK’s largest mutual life, pensions and investment company, and in the top 30 mutuals globally.*
Our parent company’s mutuality, meaning it is customer and member owned with no shareholders, allows us to adopt a mutual mindset. This means we take a longer-term view and focus on providing best customer outcomes. Whoever you are and whatever your aims, we’ll look to provide you with great long-term value, first class service and support at all times. This means that when your Financial Broker recommends Royal London Ireland to you for your protection needs, they’re recommending cover with a company that you can be sure is committed to looking after you.

Investors in Diversity: Silver Accreditation
We’re proud to have achieved Silver Accreditation from the Irish Centre for Diversity.
Investors in Diversity is Ireland’s premier Diversity and Inclusion accreditation mark. Supported by Ibec, the programme both recognises existing efforts and supports the journey of continuous improvement by providing a structured framework to transform workplace practices and culture.
Silver accreditation affirms that we have been benchmarked against other bodies and have both embedded Inclusive practices throughout the organisation as well as developed and fostered a sense of fairness and belonging among colleagues. We look forward to continuing to build on our D&I journey in the future.
