Company Overview
Legion Insurance Company and Villanova Insurance Company (Legion/Villanova) were primarily engaged in property and casualty insurance, with health insurance representing a small proportion of their total business. Legion/Villanova belonged to a family of companies under Mutual Risk Management (MRM), a Bermuda-based holding company. In April 2002, the Pennsylvania Department of Insurance placed Legion/Villanova into rehabilitation. Both companies were placed into liquidation in July 2003. All health policies were cancelled where applicable and guaranty associations paid off all outstanding covered obligations.
