About us

Royal Skandia is a leading provider of offshore savings products and offers a range of innovative and market-leading investment solutions for investors around the world.

We constantly challenge what the market has to offer, believing that you should have the freedom to choose financial products tailored to your individual needs, and the ability to adapt your portfolio as these needs change.

Royal Skandia is one of the largest insurance companies on the Isle of Man and is a major force in the offshore market place. We operate in an environment where confidentiality of information is fundamental, subject to any obligations imposed by law or regulations.

We are part of Skandia UK, a division of the Skandia Group, itself owned by Old Mutual plc. Old Mutual plc is an international savings and wealth management company based in the UK. Originating in South Africa in 1845, the group has a balanced portfolio of businesses offering asset management, life assurance, banking and general insurance services in over 40 countries, primarily South Africa, Europe and the United States. Old Mutual is listed on the London, Johannesburg and Stockholm stock exchanges, among others.

By conducting its business worldwide under its core values of integrity, respect and accountability, Old Mutual aspires to push beyond boundaries to drive value for all its stakeholders.

In the year ended 31 December 2006, the group reported an increase in adjusted operating profit of 16% to £1.4 billion, based on International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and had £239 billion of funds under management. The Company has 53,000 employees.

Our products are underpinned by the MultiManager approach that we pioneered over 20 years ago, allowing us to offer a broad range of funds from a wide selection of high quality fund managers, all under one roof. While this approach is much imitated, our expertise and commitment has ensured Skandia’s reputation as the leaders in MultiManager investment.

At the core of all our solutions is a passion for providing the opportunities for you to build a strong financial base, and a commitment that goes beyond money to help you towards your goals.
