Banner Life

The history of Banner Life Insurance Company is more than 50 years strong. Chartered in 1949 as Government Employees Life Insurance Company (GELICO), Banner was acquired by Legal & General Group Plc as a wholly owned subsidiary in 1981. In 1983, the name was changed to Banner Life, signifying the flagship position with Legal & General America in the United States.

Banner Life's subsidiary, William Penn Life Insurance Company of New York, joined the corporate group in 1989. Since that time, management for both companies has been consolidated at the senior level. Banner Life's national presence, William Penn's nearly 40 years of brokerage experience and the operational synergy between both companies is a strong combination.

Banner's life insurance products are sold through independent life brokerage agencies in 48 states and the District of Columbia.
