Some quick facts about FM Global:

FM Global traces its roots back to 1835 when its founder, a well-known textile mill owner, started a single mutual insurance company. This eventually allied with other mutual insurance companies and the Associated Factory Mutual Fire Insurance Companies, or Factory Mutual for short, was established.

The company recently received an “A+” (superior) rating from A.M. Best.

The FM Global Foundation donated more than $21 million to hospitals, civic, educational, and cultural organizations, and the United Way over the past 10 years.
