Every day, Guardian gives 26 million Americans the security they deserve through its insurance and wealth management products and services. It all began in 1860 at Delmonico’s restaurant in New York City, where a group of 21 prominent German-American businessmen led by civil rights lawyer Hugo Wesendonck gathered to create the Germania Life Insurance Company of America. Renamed “The Guardian Life Insurance Company of America” in 1918, company’s long-term view has helped its customers prepare for whatever life brings - starting a family, planning for the future or taking care of employees.

Guardian’s customer base has evolved, especially in the recent years and it has reinvented ourselves to remain their partners in life, health and wealth. Guardian’s new global brand and logo represents both its deep roots as well as determination to remain leaders in its domain through changing times.

Guardian’s new brand signifies the strength, longevity and warmth as well as the freshness of the new generation that will bear the flag of this organization in coming times.
