We are Markel

We believe that there is no higher calling in business than to help our customers and colleagues win.

Our core business is specialty insurance, but our investment portfolio and our Markel Ventures operation brings balance to the enterprise. Markel has been around since 1930—and our story is still unfolding.

We are innovating, experimenting, investing and building more customer-focused insurance solutions across all of our businesses.
