Gulf Insurance Limited

BRIEF HISTORY 

BACKGROUND Salvatori, Scott & Company Limited 

Gulf Insurance Limited grew out of the early West Indian Corporation of Salvotori, Scott & Company Limited which begun Insurance business in 1914 as the principal Caribbean representative of two established U.K. Insurers, "Norwich Union Fire Insurance" and "The Liverpool & London & Globe Insurance Company Limited.

Gulf Insurance Limited has traded successfully as an Indigenous Caribbean Insurer in the Eastern Caribbean from the early days of its formation in 1974.  The company is domiciled in Trinidad & Tobago and has gradually and deliberately expanded geographically, as opportunities have presented themselves.  Gulf Insurance Limited is legally established and currently provides Property and Casualty Insurance services in Anguilla, British Virgin Islands, Dominica, Grenada, Nevis, St Kitts, St Lucia, St Maarten (including Saba and St Eustatius), Trinidad and Tobago, St Vincent and the United States Virgin Islands. Through our Head office in Port of Spain, Trinidad, we also service a network of Agencies and Branches. This Insurance distribution network is closely monitored by a technical team from our Head office where most underwriting and claims decisions are made.

In early 2013, Gulf Insurance Limited was acquired by Assuria N.V., the largest insurance company in Suriname with an asset base of over US $200M.  This relationship solidifies Gulf’s position within the Insurance arena and enables us to continue to provide quality and affordable insurance throughout the region.  The future holds new opportunities, unlimited growth and prosperity, with Information Technology being an integral part of our business stratagem.
