🎉 We did it again!

For the 18th consecutive year, Rural Mutual Insurance has been named to the Ward's 50® list of the nation's top-performing property and casualty insurance companies.

This achievement reflects the dedication of our agents, field employees, and home office staff, along with the trust our policyholders place in us every day. Ward benchmarks nearly 3,000 insurance companies across the country, evaluating financial performance and stability before recognizing the top 50 companies.

When you do the math, that means Rural Mutual Insurance ranks among the top 2% of property and casualty insurers nationwide.

Thank you to everyone who has helped make this milestone possible. For nearly a century, we've remained committed to one mission—protecting Wisconsin's families, farms, and businesses. Here's to continuing to keep . 💚

Wisconsin’s best! 🐄🚗🏡 If you are looking for a better insurance experience give us a call 📞

🎉 Today, Rural Mutual Insurance celebrates 92 years of protecting Wisconsin! 🎉

Our story began in 1934 when affordable auto insurance wasn't readily available for Wisconsin farmers. Seeing a need, members of the Wisconsin Farm Bureau Federation voted to establish an insurance company dedicated to serving Wisconsin.

92 years later, that mission is still at the heart of everything we do.

Along the way, we’re proud to have earned some incredible achievements:
⭐ Wisconsin's #1 Farm Insurer
⭐ Wisconsin's #4 Commercial Insurer
⭐ Rated A+ (Superior) by A.M. Best for 9 consecutive years
⭐ 17 years as a Ward's Top 50 insurer
⭐ Named one of Madison's Best Places to Work 10 times

These achievements – and this milestone – are possible because of the trust and support of our policyholders, agents, employees, and community partners. From all of us at Rural Mutual, thank you for allowing us to protect what matters most for the past 92 years!
