Providing insurance to the Isle of Man since 1928

On 25th January 1928, a group of Manx businessmen incorporated Tower Insurance Company Limited, and the Island's first truly Manx insurance company opened it's doors for business.

The Directors of Tower met for the first time on 21st February 1928, and the carefully hand-written Minutes of that meeting are maintained to this day. 

In 1948, following the Second World War, Tower was bought by the Liverpool & London & Globe Insurance Ltd (who subsequently became Royal & Sun Alliance and then RSA many years later) for £25,000. Tower remained part of the RSA Group of Companies. In 2021, RSA Group was bought by Intact Financial Corporation, headquartered in Canada.

Our leadership

There have only been seven Managing Directors of the business. Arthur Skinner was the first MD in 1928, followed by Ken Owen in 1948, Tom Osborne in 1968, Dennis Mahoney in 1988 and David Stacey in 1991. David Stacey held the position of MD for 19 years before handing over to Peter Gallagher in 2010, who in turn handed over to Emmet McQuillan who became the latest MD in 2018.
