From everyday banking to loans, investments, and life insurance, London companies are helping people across Canada set their lives up for success.
London is recognized as an established, regional center for professional and business services including more than 500 companies, organizations, and institutions employing over 52,800 people in education, government, finance, insurance, accounting, customer service, and corporate offices.
As a nationally recognized test market city, London is an ideal place for companies to develop new products and services prior to nationwide launch. TD Canada Trust’s “Johnny Cash” machines, RBC’s debit card system, and Canada Life’s Freedom 55 Financial concept were all tested here.

“There was pressure to move our head office to a larger city like Toronto. What it came down to is that London is our home, our roots. It’s a big draw for our employees with great schools, a culturally diverse city and it’s a great place to raise a family. This is our legacy to London. GoodLife could not be better anywhere else”
