Founded in 1967, the International Group Program was one of the pioneers in multinational pooling and, since that time, has become the industry leader in the field of international employee benefits management. Operating in over 60 countries around the world, the IGP network is unparalleled in its flexibility and the quality of service it provides to clients.

Each of the IGP Network Partners has been selected for its leadership and stability in the group insurance and/or pensions field of its own country. Each is a substantial and reputable company, offering quality nationwide services at competitive prices, as well as the high degree of expertise and know-how that only a leading indigenous institution can provide.

In Boston, IGP maintains the largest full-time international group department in the world. Known for their experience and technical knowledge, IGP account executives are backed by dedicated administrative, marketing, and technical teams. IGP offices in Brussels, Singapore, and Tokyo expedite network service in Europe and Asia, while Network Partners in Austria, Germany, and the Netherlands work directly with indigenous parent companies.

Today, IGP is assisting over 800 multinational companies and more than 5,050 subsidiaries in achieving significant savings on their employee benefits plans.

If you are an employee benefits or risk manager, you know that the cost of providing benefits to the employees of your foreign subsidiaries is constantly increasing. IGP and multinational pooling can control these costs and keep you better informed about international benefits issues.
