Tower
TOWER’s origins go back to
1869 when the Government Life Insurance Office
(Government Life) was created in New Zealand,
with its initial capital provided by the New
Zealand government.
Government Life became a
separate statutory body with the passing of the
Government Life Insurance Act in 1953. It was
renamed TOWER Corporation in 1987 and in 1990
ownership was conferred to its policyholders
with the passing of the TOWER Corporation Act,
allowing TOWER to be owned as a mutual
association.
To remove growth constraints
resulting from difficulties in accessing new
capital under the mutual association structure,
TOWER undertook a demutualisation process in
1999 with the approval of its policyholders and
the High Court. The effect of this was to
convert TOWER’s legal status to a shareholder
owned company. Subsequent to the
demutualisation, TOWER undertook a listing on
the Australian and New Zealand stock exchanges
in September 1999.
In November 2006 TOWER's New
Zealand and Australian businesses were separated
with the approval of its shareholders and the
High Court. TOWER Limited (the New Zealand
business) is listed on the New Zealand and
Australian stock exchanges and TOWER Australia
Group Limited is listed on the Australian stock
exchange. |
