New England's oldest mutual fire insurance company, The Providence Mutual Fire Insurance Company was chartered by the General Assembly of Rhode Island in 1800 in Providence. Today The Providence Mutual Group provides personal and commercial insurance protection, written exclusively through more than 400 professional independent agents, to more than 65,000 policyholders in New England, New York and New Jersey. Based in Warwick, RI, The Providence Mutual Fire Insurance Company currently employs approximately 75 individuals, all of whom are committed to providing consistent, excellent service to the agents and policyholders.
Committed to providing policyholders with the security they deserve, The Providence has historically demonstrated outstanding financial performance and responsibility. A.M. Best Company, the nation's leading independent provider of insurance financial reporting, has consistently awarded The Providence Mutual Group its excellent (A) rating. The award is based on The Providence's solid capital position and accumulation, its excellent liquidity derived from disciplined underwriting practices and extensive local market knowledge through its long-standing independent agency relationships.
For more than two hundred years, The Providence has endured the winds of change and remained true to its original mission: to provide financial security to our policyholders against the "ravages of fire," and other perils from which they seek protection.
Since 1800, The Providence has kept its promise, in the best mutual tradition, providing stability to policyholders by continuing to serve "for the security and advantage of our neighbors and fellow citizens" and "without any view of private gain or interest."
