BUPA INTRODUCTION
Since its formation in 1947, Bupa has been a provident association. It does not have shareholders and is run solely for the benefit of customers. Its strategy and scope of activities are consistent with its founding principle - to prevent, relieve and cure sickness and ill health of every kind.
Bupa is run on listed company principles but with all surpluses after taxation fully reinvested to improve the quality and breadth of facilities and services available for customers.

An international company
Over recent years, Bupa has developed geographically and across a range of health and care services enabling it to offer more services to more people. As an international group, Bupa is not dependent on a single economic cycle or sector of healthcare. Its provident status allows Bupa to take a long-term view on behalf of its customers, which is critical in providing health and care services.
