About Nationwide Insurance

Since the early days as an Ohio-based mutual auto insurer in 1925, Nationwide Insurance has expanded to become one of the largest insurance companies in the world. Today, the company provides a full range of personalized insurance and financial services, including auto, motorcycle, boat, homeowners, life, farm and commercial insurance, plus annuities, mortgages, mutual funds, pensions, long-term savings plans and even a bank.

Wiki Says

Nationwide Mutual Insurance Company & Affiliated Companies is a group of large U.S. insurance and financial services companies. On December 17, 1925, the Ohio Farm Bureau Federation incorporated the Farm Bureau Mutual Automobile Insurance Company in Columbus, Ohio. At that time, Ohio law required 100 people to pledge to become policyholders. The first agents managed to recruit 10 times that number and on April 12, 1926, Farm Bureau Mutual opened its doors.

The first product of the new company was car insurance. The company wrote policies only to Ohio farmers. In 1928, Farm Bureau Mutual began offering policies to West Virginia farmers, followed by Maryland, Delaware, Vermont and North Carolina. Farm Bureau Mutual began underwriting policies for residents of small towns in 1931 and for residents of larger cities in 1934.
