About W. R. Berkley Corporation
“Always do right. This will gratify some people and astonish the rest."
These inspirational words by Mark Twain remind us that when we do the right thing, it's worth it – and people notice.
The idea is as simple as it sounds. Doing the right thing engenders the trust of our customers, distribution partners, employees and shareholders, enabling us to grow our business profitably and meet the diverse needs of all our constituents.
Mr. Twain’s quote has been featured in our annual report for over a decade and continues to embody the principles that guide the way we do business. It is embedded in our culture and exemplified by our employees every day. Please refer to our Code of Ethics documents for more information.
