About Us

Our mission is to provide best-in-class equipment breakdown reinsurance and related services to insurance professionals and their clients. The measure of our success is you, our customers, and the growth of your books of business.

Travelers Boiler & Machinery was founded in 1907 to protect America’s rapidly growing industrial complex. We entered the equipment breakdown reinsurance marketplace to extend our vast equipment, boiler and machinery experience to a wider segment of insurance clients.

Today, Travelers BoilerRe is a leading provider of equipment breakdown reinsurance products and services to regional and national insurance carriers, municipal pools and managing general agents. 

Headquartered in Hartford, Connecticut, we’re backed by the financial strength and corporate governance of Travelers (NYSE: TRV), which has more than 30,000 employees and operations in the United States and select international markets. Travelers has an A++ A.M. Best financial rating and is a component of the Dow Jones industrial average.

We continuously draw on our 100-plus-year history to improve our client experience. It’s our cumulative knowledge and dedication that drives our shared success.

We combine our deep engineering expertise with collaborative services and financial flexibility to best meet your needs and those of your clients. We are continually evolving to keep pace with the rate of technological innovation and industry disruption. With the singular goal of helping your equipment breakdown business succeed, we resolve to think, act and work as your dedicated equipment breakdown division.

Through this client-centered approach, we have a proven track record of providing full-service, profitable equipment breakdown capabilities to a wide range of insurance entities. 

Confidentiality is a critical aspect of our approach. Strong information technology firewalls and strict processes protect the data we receive from our clients. So while we’re able to benefit from the expertise and resources of the Travelers organization, we guarantee the discretion and sensitivity of a dedicated independent provider.
