Chart outlining Fortune World’s Most Admired Companies Top 10 List in 2022

We are excited to announce that Berkshire Hathaway is ranked #6 in World’s Most Admired Companies list as determined annually by Fortune.  Notably, Berkshire has maintained the 1st place ranking for our industry (Insurance: Property & Casualty) for the 17th consecutive year. The Berkshire Hathaway Homestate Companies are honored to be a part of the Berkshire Hathaway Insurance Group in support of our organization’s reputation and integrity through a culture of service.

This annual list rates firms on nine critical attributes to identify those with the strongest reputations among the world’s top executives. The rankings emerge from a survey of 3,700 top executives and directors, along with financial analysts, that examines the companies who enjoy the strongest reputations within their industries and across industries.

Berkshire Hathaway has made the list before. In fact, since 1998, a 24-year streak, and for the Property & Casualty Insurance industry, since 2005 which is a 17-year streak. Being included as a part of the company that is named to this prestigious roster is an honor every single time. It says we’re innovative; provide high-quality products and services; are well-managed; are socially responsible; attract and retain talented team members; and are financially sound. All things that matter to us and to our customers. All things we strive to achieve every day.

Here’s to continuing the work as BHHC to be among the world’s most admired. After all, we want to be there next year to support and make our contribution to the Property & Casualty Insurance industry 1st place ranking and keep the streak going!

AM Best superior rating

AM Best superior rating

We’re earning high marks,  A++ (Superior)

When potential customers start shopping for insurance, it’s natural for them to want some sort of verification that says, “You can trust this insurance company. It’s stable. It will be there for you should you have a claim. And it will endure long into the future.”

We’d want the same.

We’re honored to have earned an A++ (Superior) financial strength rating

That’s why we’re honored to have earned an A++ (Superior) financial strength rating from A.M. Best. You see, Alfred M. Best started the A.M. Best Company in 1899 with a goal of providing financial stability reports on insurance companies. He understood – just like we do – that insurance buyers crave proof that the firm they’re choosing is solid, trustworthy and here for the long haul.

Best’s Credit Ratings are the gold standard

Today, Best’s Credit Ratings are the gold standard when it comes to evaluating insurance provider’s financial strength and credit quality. Which is why we couldn’t be prouder that every BHHC affiliate has earned that A++ rating from AM Best.

An enviable record of success

We have a sense of pride knowing our history of quality and service is acknowledged. We have an enviable record of success in the insurance industry and that is supported by A.M. Best’s highest financial strength rating of A++.
