January marked the completion of a deal in which Guardian General Limited acquired the share capital of the Zenith Group of Companies.  With this transaction, GHL moved into the top 50 general insurance companies specializing in the UK and Irish personal lines market.  UK and European markets now represent two thirds, or TT$ 2 Billion of our General Insurance revenue.  The Zenith Group consists of several companies held through a Gibraltar based holding company. 

With this acquisition the GHL group welcomes 200 new staff members, while further establishing GHL as a leading Caribbean based insurer extending our reach into new opportunities in the UK and Europe.
