Largest Insurance Companies by Market Capitalization

Berkshire Hathaway entered the insurance business in 1967 by acquiring National Indemnity Company, and its subsidiaries — GEICO, Berkshire Hathaway Reinsurance Group, and General Re — now make it one of the two largest insurance companies in the world by market capitalization. The other top spot is typically held by a Chinese insurer, reflecting how the industry’s biggest players are split between the United States and Asia.

The insurance sector is organized around three main business lines: property and casualty (P&C), life and annuity, and private health insurance. Reinsurance — where one insurer indemnifies another against losses — is a distinct category with roots tracing back to the late 14th century. Insurance brokers such as Marsh & McLennan, Aon, and Willis Towers Watson sit alongside these groups, connecting insurers with clients rather than underwriting risk directly.

Among the structural leaders by market cap:

  • Life & Health: AIA Group (founded in 1919, listed on the HKEX), Ping An Insurance (Shanghai SSE / HKEX), and China Life Insurance (HKEX / NYSE ADR)
  • Health Insurance: UnitedHealth Group (NYSE) and Elevance Health (NYSE), which distributes plans through Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield
  • P&C and Diversified: Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE), whose GEICO subsidiary was founded in 1936, and Germany-based Allianz Group (Frankfurt / Xetra), serving more than 126 million customers across over 70 countries
  • Reinsurance: Gen Re, originally formed in 1921 and acquired by Berkshire Hathaway in 1998

These companies trade on exchanges spanning the NYSE, Shanghai SSE, HKEX, and Frankfurt. Only publicly traded insurers are included in the ranking; privately held companies are excluded. For a broader view, see the largest financial companies by market cap.
