HistoryLondon businessThe firm was founded as a land agency in Dublin in 1836 by barrister Robert Rundell Guinness, a great-nephew of the brewer Arthur Guinness,[1] and John Ross Mahon, an estate agent.[2][3] A London office opened in 1873, closed in 1916 during World War I and then re-opened again in 1923.[2] This became Guinness Mahon Holdings, which merged with Lewis & Peat Ltd in 1974, forming Guinness Peat (subsequently Guinness Peat Group).[2] The Group ran into difficulties in the late 1980s[4] and demerged into three parts: the Guinness Mahon investment banking business, Fenchurch Insurance and the off-shore investment activities.[2] The offshore investment activities in Australia and New Zealand (then known as Guinness Peat Group) were bought by Brierley Investments Limited (a business controlled by Sir Ron Brierley) in 1990[5] and the Guinness Mahon investment banking business was acquired by Bank of Yokohama in 1991[4] and then sold on to Investec in 1998.[6] Meanwhile, Fenchurch Insurance merged with Lowndes Lambert in 1997 to create Lambert Fenchurch, then with Heath Group in 1999 to form Heath Lambert and then with Arthur J. Gallagher & Co. in 2011 to form Gallagher Heath.[7] Irish businessFrom April 1986 to August 1994, Guinness & Mahon (Ireland) Ltd was a wholly owned subsidiary of Guinness Mahon & Co., London.
