Our story

Founded by Inez Cooper in 1992, William Russell has grown from a family-run business to a leading provider of international health, life and income protection insurance.

Our plans

Our health, life, income protection, and personal accident plans are underwritten by Dubai Insurance Company, and reinsured by an insurance company in the Allianz group.

Our service

What sets us apart is our personal touch. We believe in named advisers not impersonal service, and straight, honest communication rather than pages of small print.
