Countrywide Assured Group plc
 PROFILE
When it comes to buying, selling, refinancing, and insuring a home, rest assured that Countrywide Assured Group can do the job. Its more than 700 residential and business real estate agencies operate primarily under such well-known local names as Abbots, Bairstow Eves, and John D Wood. Although it is the UK's largest chain of real estate agencies, the firm gets most of its profits from other divisions. Its financial services subsidiaries sell life insurance and investment products. Other subsidiaries survey and value property; transfer real estate titles; and help businesses relocate. Countrywide Assured was spun off from former parent Hambros PLC in 1998.
