MCKINNEY, Texas, Jan. 5, 2017/PRNewswire / -- First United American Life Insurance Company returned to its roots and changed its name to Globe Life Insurance Company of New York, as of January 1, 2017. When it was first incorporated as a stock life insurance company in 1981, First United American was known as Globe International Life Insurance Company. First United American, based in Liverpool, New York, has been working diligently to ensure a proper transition for its policyholders going into the New Year.

First United American changed its name in order to capitalize on the increased brand recognition experienced by its affiliate, Globe Life And Accident Insurance Company.

Globe Life And Accident Insurance Company and Globe Life Insurance Company of New Yorkare subsidiaries of Torchmark Corporation (NYSE: TMK).
