Wiki Says
The Hanover Insurance Group, Inc., is one of the oldest businesses in the United
States, still operating within its original industry. It was the
original name of a property-liability insurance firm born in 1852, and
it remained a publicly traded company under that name until the early
1990s, when it changed its name to Allmerica Property & Casualty
Companies.
In 1996, it spun off Allmerica Financial Corporation as a property and
casualty insurance and financial services holding company, which then
bought out the original firm, and grew to become one of the 500 largest
publicly-traded companies of the United States. In 2005, Allmerica
Financial Corporation reverted its name back to Hanover.
Hanover Home Insurance Says
Hanover's homeowners insurance for single-owner
homes
covers the house and other structures on the insured property for
direct physical loss. Additional coverage options include:
- Additional living expenses - covering extra
living
costs while the insured home is repaired or replaced.
- Liability coverage - for property damage and
bodily
injuries to others for which the insured is responsible.
- Medical payments - for non-household
members
who are accidentally injured on the insured property or by the customer.
- Policy limits adjusted to keep pace with rising
home
costs associated with repairing or replacing the insured home in the
event of a catastrophic loss.
