Aviva Portfolio holdings
Aviva is a British insurer whose roots go back to the Hand in Hand fire and life insurance society, set up in 1696. The group was formed in 2000 as CGNU, when Norwich Union merged with CGU, and shareholders chose the invented name Aviva in 2002, built from the Latin word for alive. It has since grown through deals including the takeover of Friends Life in 2015 and the purchase of Direct Line Group in 2025. Besides selling general and life insurance, it offers savings products and manages money for clients.
