Great American Insurance Group is engaged primarily in property and casualty insurance (“P&C”), focusing on specialized commercial products for businesses, and in the sale of traditional fixed and fixed-indexed annuities.

Property & Casualty Operations

The Property and Casualty Group is among the oldest in the United States, dating from the founding of our flagship company, Great American Insurance Company, in 1872. The P&C Group is made up approximately 30 niche specialty insurance industries that focus on specialized commercial products and services for businesses.

Helping Businesses Focus on Business — Not Risk

Strong businesses play a crucial role in our communities. But their owners face more risks than ever. A lawsuit or a stroke of bad luck could set them back — or wipe them out completely — if they don’t have the right coverage. They count on knowledgeable insurance agents to help them manage the risks inherent in their industry, as well as their unique business circumstances.

Great American Insurance can help you provide innovative and affordable insurance solutions for your customers’ insurance needs. We’ve been insuring businesses — and strengthening great communities — for generations.

An Entrepreneurial Approach to Business

You’ll find that Great American is structured like a network of small businesses. All of our companies and divisions design products and build relationships in the markets and communities they serve. That means less red tape for you, and faster answers for your customers. You’ll always work directly with the experts in each specialty line, and get the personal attention you deserve.
