FM Global, one of the world’s largest commercial property insurers, has announced that its eligible policyholders will collectively receive an estimated US$600 million in membership credit when they renew their policies between Jan. 1, 2022, and Dec. 31, 2022. In the past 12 months, FM Global's clients completed over 50,000 of its engineering-driven risk improvement recommendations, resulting in approximately US$700 billion of loss exposures mitigated.
“Despite a world facing increasing risks and the continuing challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic, our policyholders’ proactive approach to property risk improvement continues to contribute to their resilience and their ability to mitigate losses,” said Thomas A. Lawson, chairman and chief executive officer. “As a mutual insurance company, the membership credit is one way we recognise our client-owners for making a strategic decision to choose resilience.”
The membership credit an eligible policyholder receives will be based on their premium and tenure and applied as an offset against premium at a client’s renewal or anniversary date. A few clients have been FM Global policyholders since the late 1800s.
