About the Sanlam Group

In March 2008, Principal became part of the Sanlam Group. Sanlam is a leading South African financial services business, listed on the JSE and Namibian stock exchanges.

The Group comprises a number of mutually dependent business entities focusing mainly, but not exclusively, on wealth creation and protection, investment management and ancillary financial services solutions for individuals and institutions.

Apart from the UK, the Group has business interests elsewhere in Africa and in India. On 31 December 2007, the Group had assets under management in excess of R525 billion and an employee base of 9,000.

As well as providing the backing of a large financial services operation, with £35 billion of assets under management, Sanlam’s involvement will allow Principal to enhance the investment service we offer our existing clients and introducers, whilst maintaining the high level of personal service on which our business has been built.
