one of the original 'bags' of the community that developed out of carpetbagger.com, when we moved beyond building societies, AAAT.

part of my route into becoming an investor.. invested in a Bond way back and, after their 'merger with' Teachers Assurance, have a pension plan with them too.. so i shall watch with interest.

thank you.. but it's not really an achievement, it's just 'informed' speculating.

LV members haven't received a windfall as a result of the sale of the general insurance division to Allianz, AAAT. https://www.allianz.co.uk/news-and-insi ... neral.html

..but i still think it's worth watching LV.

That will please 'im indoors as he has a life insurance policy with them.

But as LV is no longer selling car insurance etc will the ads disappear to be replaced with the new owners name? Seems odd I can now buy car and life insurance from LV and have policies with two different companies.
