The Caribbean Home Insurance Company Limited was registered in Barbados on November 24th, 1977, to underwrite all classes of general insurance as well as group life and health. However, the branch started operations officially in January 1978, under the leadership of Mr. William Tomlin, with its office located at 2nd Floor, Trident House, Bridgetown.

In March 1981, Mr. John A. Jones assumed leadership of the branch. Mr. Jones has overseen two office relocations, the first in February 1982 to Roebuck Street, Bridgetown and the second in March 1996 to Upper Collymore Rock, St. Michael, the branch’s current home.

In December 2001, Guardian Holdings Limited acquired The Caribbean Home Insurance Company Limited from Neal and Massy Holdings, and on March 1st, 2004, Caribbean Home was renamed Guardian General Insurance Limited.
