Rli Corp
One of the largest specialty insurers in the US, RLI writes property, casualty, and surety coverage for niche, hard-to-place risks, selling through brokers, independent agents, and digital platforms — with products like commercial excess, commercial property, and transactional surety. It began in 1965 when founder Gerald D. Stephens launched a company to insure young people against losing their pricey contact lenses. That's how the name came about: RLI originally stood for "Replacement Lens, Inc."
