Cancelled insurance licences

This page lists insurance companies that have had their licence cancelled.

We may cancel insurance licences for a number of reasons, as outlined in Section 30 of the Insurance (Prudential Supervision) Act 2010 (IPS Act). This may include an insurer ceasing to carry on insurance business due to a voluntary exit from the market.

Read Section 30 of the IPS Act – cancellation of licence

The register of cancelled licences below uses the legal company name recorded with the Companies Office at the time the licence was cancelled. Subsequent name changes, trading names or brands are not included.
