ABOUT THE COMPANY

Smith Bell Corp.’s involvement in insurance dates as far back as 1849 when Smith Bell was appointed agents of Imperial Insurance Company, Ltd. In 1863, two years after Commercial Union Assurance Co., Ltd. was founded, Smith Bell was appointed as its general agent in the Philippines. Years later, in 1877 Smith Bell became Lloyd's of London agents and subsequently, general agents for several prestigious insurance companies - The South British Insurance Company (1866), Allied Assurance (1889), Guardian Royal Exchange (Union Insurance Society of Canton, Ltd. - 1915), and a few years later, the Insurance Company of North America. Since then, the insurance expertise of Smith Bell has been continually enhanced.

To better serve the needs of its clients, Smith Bell formed a separate company to act as independent insurance brokers. Thus in 1979, Smith Bell Insurance Brokers, Inc. was incorporated, bringing with it the wealth of experience of Smith Bell's Insurance Department.

In 2011, the name of Smith Bell Insurance Brokers, Inc. was changed to Smith Bell Insurance Agency, Inc. (SBIAI).

Being in the insurance business for over 100 years, Smith Bell has always retained the trust and confidence of its clients in serving their insurance needs. Hence, the company commits to uphold its objectives as a responsible professional insurance agent.
