Having completed our initial public offering in November 2006, our common stock is now traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol So who is OneBeacon? We are a leading property and casualty insurance carrier with a heritage that spans more than 175 years. OneBeacon concentrates on specialty products, customer groups and geographic markets in partnership with select independent agents, which enable us to deliver long-term shareholder growth. Our philosophy is shaped by four core operating principles: |
|
Underwriting comes first: The business we write must have a realistic expectation of underwriting profit. Maintain a disciplined balance sheet: Our philosophy is that loss and loss adjustment expense reserves must be solid before any other aspect of the business can be solid. Invest for total return: OneBeacon strives to earn the highest growth in after-tax value over time, and we are indifferent regarding whether this growth comes from investment income or capital gains. Think like owners: Our employees are all stakeholders in our business, which motivates them to continually focus on OneBeacon's long-term health and performance. Our distribution network includes approximately 2,700 agency partners and brokers nationwide. OneBeacon is rated “A” (excellent) by A.M. Best and with our strong balance sheet and healthy capitalization we believe we are uniquely positioned for sustained profitable growth. Please visit our Web site often and contact our Investor Relations office with your questions. Thank you for your interest in OneBeacon. Best regards, T. Michael Miller President and Chief Executive Officer |
