Untitled[edit]

General Union? I presume that should be either General Accident or Commerical Union, the two compenent parts of CGU, but which?

History 1990's[edit]

The available history is a bit twee and rose tinted (from this page and the heritage page linked to). For example it doesn't mention the horrendous losses in the period 1991-93 that led to severe financial difficulties for NUFIS and it's subsequent bailout by NULIS based on a poor balance of underwriting that then led to a lot of branch closures and redundancies.

This therefore gives a false impression of the history of NUFIS, and doesn't necessarily explain why a merger with CU and GA was a 'good' thing and was part of a larger movement of consolidation within the British general insurance market. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pgb62uk (talk • contribs) 10:34, 4 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

1.26M Fine[edit]

How the hell can 1.26m fines plus a 11m+ payout be due to a "small case of fraud". Clearly its massive. No wonder they rebranded to Aviva. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 212.159.12.26 (talk) 13:36, 3 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

CGU[edit]

CGU was formed from the merger of General Accident and Commercial Union in 1997. The subsequent merger of Norwich Union and CGU formed CGNU, this title was not an abbreviation.

New name[edit]

This article is soon going to have to be renamed, as the Norwich Union name is being dropped in favour of Aviva, Any suggestions? Maybe "Aviva (UK)"?--FF3000 (talk) 15:57, 27 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

No. This article is about Norwich Union and its history - which is of considerable significance in its own right. There is already a separate article on Aviva. Dormskirk (talk) 20:57, 27 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

URL link[edit]

Hello,

I work in the communications team at Aviva and would like to suggest a change to this page please.

Instead of linking out to Aviva's customer sales site can we offer a link to Aviva's heritage website instead please? This contains lots of information about Norwich Union and Aviva's other heritage companies. We think this might be more relevant and interesting to your users rather than a consumer sales page.

The Heritage site URL is: Cite error: There are <ref> tags on this page without content in them (see the help page).http://heritage.aviva.com/

Thanks so much
