About
In 1971, we opened our doors as an insurance rating bureau, focusing on risk analytics and insights. Since then, we’ve grown to become a valued source of insights that can drive recovery and transform industries, and even governments, worldwide. For 50 years, we’ve combined our unique data with advanced technologies in new ways to unlock meaningful insights about risk, moving forward to become a global leader in cutting-edge analytics. We’ve stayed at the forefront of developing innovations to help customers manage the risks they face. And while our golden anniversary is a natural opportunity to reflect on how far we’ve come, it’s also a celebration of what comes next. Over five decades, we’ve evolved from a nonprofit advisory rating organization for U.S. insurers to a global leader in data, analytics, and ethical corporate practices. Along the way, we’ve entered new markets and countries, positioned ourselves for future growth, and led the way in groundbreaking uses of technology to keep our customers—and the world—moving forward.
