- Hansard Global plc is a specialist long-term savings provider headquartered in Douglas, Isle of Man, operating since its founding in 1970. The company offers a comprehensive range of savings and investment solutions, including personal portfolio bonds for lump sum investors, regular savings contracts for regular savers, and flexible contribution plans. Its product suite primarily comprises unit-linked life assurance policies, including the Vantage Platinum II, Capital Builder Family, and Universal Personal Portfolio. These products are distributed primarily through independent financial advisors and financial institutions, targeting international clients across key markets such as the Middle East, Africa, the Far East, Latin America, the Isle of Man, the Bahamas, and the Republic of Ireland.
Hansard Global’s principal activities encompass the transaction of life assurance business and related investment management services, operating through subsidiaries such as Hansard International Limited and Hansard Worldwide Limited. The company also provides administration, marketing, and development services to support these activities. Its services are designed to offer flexible, tax-efficient investment options within life assurance policy wrappers aimed at wealth management clients, institutions, and private investors.
In recent developments, Hansard Global has executed a major digital transformation by partnering with Majesco to migrate its entire portfolio to the cloud-native LifePlus platform. This move integrates advanced administration, distribution, illustration, and client/broker portals to enhance operational efficiency and provide an improved digital experience for brokers and clients globally. Alongside this technological upgrade, the company has launched new savings and investment products, including the Ascend and Future Focus offerings, which have contributed to a 5.9% increase in new business on a Present Value of New Business Premiums (PVNBP) basis for the fiscal year 2025.
Hansard also showed a strategic focus on expanding its geographic footprint, with notable growth expected in Latin America and an upcoming launch in the Japanese market planned for 2026. Despite some decline in overall IFRS profit due to continued investment and litigation costs, the company’s solvency ratio strengthened to 169%, reflecting robust financial health. The company continues to invest in its new policy administration system, positioning itself for long-term sustainable growth and operational optimization across its international markets.
Hansard Global plc is listed on the London Stock Exchange under the ticker HSD.L and serves a global client base with an emphasis on providing long-term, flexible investment products wrapped in life assurance policies, backed by recent innovations in technology and product offerings to maintain a competitive edge in the international financial services industry.
