RF&G Life insurance is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the RoeGroup of Companies, one of the largest and most successful groups of companies in Belize. The birth of the Roe Group of Companies was marked by the purchase of a defunct insurance agency, Horncastle (British Honduras) Ltd. from the H. Melhado Company by Mr. Gordon A. Roe in late 1963. With the help of underwriters at Lloyds of London and hard work, the agency soon built a reputation for integrity and service and took its place as one of the most important and respected insurance agencies in British Honduras.
Recognizing a need to more clearly define its purpose, in 1970,G.A. Roe & Sons Ltd. established an insurance company called fire and General Assurance Company of Belize Ltd. Fire and general retained a part of the portfolio of business generated by the G.A. Roe & Sons Ltd. agency operation In 1975 As the Reinsurance businesses continued to grow, it was, once again, decided that it was necessary to clearly state the direction of their insurance operations.
Thus, G.A. Roe & Sons (Insurance Services)Ltd. was established to carry on the operations of the agency business. By this time the Agency had developed the expertise of an underwriting agency, producing and underwriting business for the Fire & General Assurance Company and for certain Lloyds of London Underwriters.
