Symbolism
Arms
The classical column and the division line represent security and a strong structure, thus alluding to secure investments and the fact that League invests in real estate. The two shields symbolize the principles of “positive interdependence” and “member-partnership” that League’s founders put in place to protect League’s investors and investments. The discs represent coins and therefore wealth, while the sextant, a navigational tool, indicates that League exists to seek out good properties for its investors and to provide expert direction.
Crest
The rock indicates a firm foundation upon which League’s investments are based. The beacon connotes several meanings: the flames refer to the light of knowledge and League’s commitment to educating investors, while the beacon itself, which is a way to show travellers the path to a safe destination, represents the service League offers to investors.
Supporters
The lion represents courage and leadership, while the ox represents strength and persistence. The chain links around their collars refer to the linking of investors in common goals, for which reason the name “League” was chosen. They are shown as anchor links, which are particularly strong.
Motto
This means “My word is my bond, my honour is my glory” and indicates the importance League places on trust and honourable conduct.
Flag
The symbolism of this emblem is found in other element(s) of this record.
Badge
The coin and infinity symbol convey the idea of intergenerational wealth.
