Loews Corporation is a diversified holding company (incorporated 1969, headquartered in New York) whose subsidiaries operate across several distinct industries. Its core business is commercial property and casualty insurance, offered in the U.S. and internationally, with a heavy emphasis on specialty lines such as professional and management liability, surety and fidelity bonds, D&O, errors and omissions, cyber, and coverage tailored to healthcare practitioners and professional firms. Insurance products are distributed through retail and wholesale brokers, independent agents, and managing general underwriters.
Beyond insurance, Loews runs non-financial businesses including ethane supply and transportation services for petrochemical customers, natural gas and natural gas liquids storage and transport, a hotel chain, plastic container manufacturing (extrusion blow-molded and injection molded), and the production of commodity and differentiated plastic resins. The company also retains run-off long-term care insurance liabilities through its subsidiaries.
As a large-cap holding company (GICS classified under Financials, Multi-line Insurance), Loews follows a conglomerate model in which a parent entity owns controlling stakes in operating subsidiaries spanning insurance, energy logistics, hospitality, and industrials-a structure that gives it multiple uncorrelated revenue streams but also exposes consolidated results to cyclicality in energy and manufacturing alongside underwriting performance.
