Ward Group has provided benchmarking and best practices studies for the insurance industry since 1991. They release the Ward's 50 list each year to identify top performers, after an analysis of more than 700 life-health U.S.-based insurance companies.

To be included on the list and receive the Ward's 50 Seal, an insurance provider must surpass all safety and consistency tests, and achieve superior performance during the five years analyzed. Organizations are ranked in performance based on the following metrics:

  • Five year average return on average equity
  • Five year average return on average assets
  • Five year average return on total revenue
  • Five year growth in total revenue
  • Five year growth in surplus

"Combined Insurance is honored to be included on the Ward's 50 list again this year," says Brad Bennett, President of Combined Insurance. "Being recognized for seven straight years validates that the strategy, practices, and standards that we have put in place to build our business are meeting the needs of our existing policyholders, as well as the markets we serve. All of which results in our continued strong performance and growth."

In addition to its inclusion on the Ward's 50 list, Combined Insurance has an A+ accredited business rating from the Better Business Bureau, and an A+ (Superior) Financial Strength rating from A.M. Best, one of the world's top insurance-rating firms.
