Aegon's roots stretch back to the first half of the 19th century. At that time, Aegon provided modest funds in the Netherlands for people to arrange burials for their family members and other loved ones.
Aegon has come a long way since then.
Today, Aegon is an international provider of life insurance, pensions and asset management, with millions of customers and businesses in over 20 countries around the world.
The story of our development is long and involves many other companies, each with their own history, who joined their story to our own.
In this section you can read some of our historic highlights, including our expansion from the north of the Netherlands across several continents, our acquisitions and our joint ventures.
Aegon has evolved over the past century and a half, but our goal to help our customers secure their financial future remains unchanged.
