Also, it looks like "old mutual health" was recently re-branded to "ReAssure" in the UK, so that would be who to look up for what type of insurance they would provide. It does sound like they were life insurance, or "life assurance" as they called it. Sounds very much like disability insurance would be under their umbrella.
No, that's Old Mutual Wealth which rebranded. Wealth, not Health. Maybe this is a mistake in the article?
Oh, as far as I could tell they were part of the same company, the health was an umbrella with the wealth one under it.
Huh, you're right but the umbrella company was still only called "Old Mutual".
That makes more sense.
