Chubb Limited

A global insurer, Chubb protects businesses, high-net-worth households, and everyday customers across dozens of countries with property, casualty, life, accident, and health coverage, plus reinsurance. The name traces to 1882, when Thomas Caldecot Chubb and his son Percy began insuring ships and cargo in New York's seaport, funded by a hundred local merchants. After ACE Limited bought the original Chubb in 2016, the combined firm kept the better-known Chubb name; a century earlier, Chubb won fame for paying San Francisco earthquake claims in full when rivals discounted theirs.
