# AIG vs Berkshire Hathaway Specialty Insurance

Compare AIG and Berkshire Hathaway Specialty Insurance as commercial insurers, including their stated agent binding routes and legal-entity questions.

## Before You Quote

Ask each provider about eligibility, the issuing insurer, policy wording, limits, retentions, exclusions and costs for your business.

## Highlights

AIG and Berkshire Hathaway Specialty Insurance both present commercial insurance offerings through groups of insurance companies, while BHSI’s terms say only contracted National Indemnity group agents may bind coverage. Buyers comparing the two should focus on the specific issuing company, product form and the agent authorized for the placement.

### Berkshire Hathaway Specialty Insurance

Role: Insurance carrier.

Carrier & MGA Spot Score: **7.0/10** (partial score; 85% of this role's weighting included). Assessed 2026-09-29; review due 2026-10-29. Excluded factors: Carrier-Network Strength (The supplied evidence did not support a score for Carrier-Network Strength; this factor is excluded, not scored as zero. Canonical evidence gaps: The AM Best rating carries a group-affiliation code, so it reflects the Berkshire Hathaway group rather than a standalone view.; No NAIC complaint index or state complaint data for BHSIC was found, so service outcomes are not measured.; Which BHSI-branded product is written on BHSIC paper versus an affiliate (Direct, Homestate, travel programs) is not mapped by product.; A state-by-state license lookup was not run; the all-states statement comes from the Nebraska exam report.; Non-U.S. regulators (FCA and PRA for the U.K. entity, Singapore, Australia and others) were not searched.).

## AIG Reviews

Review Score: 4.4 / 10 from 2 rated sources, equally weighted.

Customer ratings for AIG are low: Trustpilot shows 1.9 out of 5 from 252 reviews, and NerdWallet gives 2.5 stars and notes more claims complaints than expected. These pages cover many AIG products and countries, so they only loosely describe business insurance.

- NerdWallet: NerdWallet editorial rating 2.5 (stars). NerdWallet’s editorial business-insurance comparison; the AIG entry concerns commercial liability and property insurance, not a quantified policyholder-review sample. The page’s complaint statement and 2.5-star editorial rating are source-specific and must not be recast as a consumer average. Checked 2026-09-29. [Business Insurance: Get Quotes and Coverage Today](https://www.nerdwallet.com/business/insurance/best)
- Trustpilot: Trustpilot TrustScore 1.9 (out of 5); 252 reviews. Consumer reviews on aig.com’s Trustpilot profile span products and countries, including personal, travel, device/service and other experiences; they do not isolate U.S. commercial-P&C policyholders or a single issuing insurer. Checked 2026-09-29. [AIG Reviews](https://www.trustpilot.com/review/aig.com)
- ConsumerAffairs: ConsumerAffairs average 1.0 (out of 5); 274 reviews. ConsumerAffairs page titled AIG Life Insurance Reviews, updated 2026-08-14. The page mixes life and high-net-worth home references and reviewers may describe other AIG relationships; it is not a commercial-P&C-only population. Checked 2026-09-29. [AIG Life Insurance Reviews](https://www.consumeraffairs.com/insurance/aig_life.html)
- BBB: Complaints shown, prior 3 years 270. BBB’s American International Group, Inc. headquarters profile and corporate-owned locations (86 listed locations); complaint data is not limited to commercial insurance or a particular risk-bearing insurer.

## Berkshire Hathaway Specialty Insurance Reviews

Review Score: not enough ratings.

The public ratings for Berkshire Hathaway Specialty Insurance are low but thin: Trustpilot shows 2.1 out of 5 from 9 reviews and BBB shows 1 out of 5 from 6. Both mix travel and commercial customers, so we don't count them in a score.

- Trustpilot: TrustScore 2.1 (out of 5); 9 reviews. Trustpilot profile for bhspecialty.com, accessed 2026-09-29. Its small review set mixes travel-policy and other customer accounts; it is user-generated and unverified, and does not establish commercial-policy outcomes or representativeness.

## Optional Spot Service Handoff

Spot can help prepare applications, coordinate brokers, and compare proposals. If that work is needed, collect the company's task, known deadline, current broker, and open questions for a [free consultation](https://spot.insure/pricing.md). The company decides what to buy; Spot does not automatically bind coverage.

## Key Differences

BHSI’s U.S. materials list sectors including real estate, healthcare, manufacturing, logistics, transportation, energy and technology, and associate industries with product segments. AIG’s Surplus Lines section describes solutions across small, middle-market and large enterprises. These are starting points for underwriting discussion, not a promise that either carrier will accept the account. [1](https://www.aig.com/investor-relations "Investor Relations") [2](https://www.aig.com/legal-notice "Additional Legal Notices") [16](https://www.bhspecialty.com/wp-content/uploads/marketing/Interactive-AAG.pdf "At A Glance") [17](https://www.bhspecialty.com/about-us/ "About Us") [20](https://www.bhspecialty.com/terms-conditions/ "Terms of Service") [1](https://www.aig.com/investor-relations "Investor Relations") [2](https://www.aig.com/legal-notice "Additional Legal Notices") [3](https://www.aig.com/home/risk-solutions/business "Business") [16](https://www.bhspecialty.com/wp-content/uploads/marketing/Interactive-AAG.pdf "At A Glance")

BHSI says online quote or application submissions are informational and nonbinding and restricts binding to contracted agents; AIG lists broker and agent portal tools. Ask each intermediary to show the authority and process for binding the exact product in the relevant state. [4](https://www.aig.com/login "AIG Login") [20](https://www.bhspecialty.com/terms-conditions/ "Terms of Service")

BHSI’s claims standards describe involving brokers and policyholders in specified claim discussions; AIG lists online claim reporting and status tools for named primary lines. These are different service descriptions, so compare actual claim instructions, contacts and policy-specific obligations. [4](https://www.aig.com/login "AIG Login") [5](https://www.aig.com/business/business-claims/intellirisk-services "IntelliRisk") [23](https://www.bhspecialty.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/Claims-Excellence-US.pdf "Claims Excellence — United States")

## What to Confirm in Quotes

- Which BHSI or AIG legal insurance company will appear on the declarations, and is the proposed form admitted or surplus lines? [1](https://www.aig.com/investor-relations "Investor Relations") [2](https://www.aig.com/legal-notice "Additional Legal Notices") [16](https://www.bhspecialty.com/wp-content/uploads/marketing/Interactive-AAG.pdf "At A Glance") [17](https://www.bhspecialty.com/about-us/ "About Us") [20](https://www.bhspecialty.com/terms-conditions/ "Terms of Service")
- Confirm that the producer is authorized to submit and bind the exact product and state; an online submission alone is not a binder. [4](https://www.aig.com/login "AIG Login") [20](https://www.bhspecialty.com/terms-conditions/ "Terms of Service")
- Compare forms, exclusions, limits, deductibles, claim contacts and service standards for the specific proposals.

[1](https://www.aig.com/investor-relations "Investor Relations") [2](https://www.aig.com/legal-notice "Additional Legal Notices") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: AIG group naming and the listed U.S.-domiciled property and casualty companies. The legal notice is not a policy-specific carrier assignment or complete ownership chart.; verified: 2026-09-28.) | BHSI’s U.S. At A Glance section (version 2026-8-03 A) lists commercial property, casualty, healthcare professional liability, executive and professional lines, surety, travel, programs, employer stop loss, and homeowners insurance. The guide is informational, not policy coverage, and its brand-level list does not identify the insurer on a particular policy. [16](https://www.bhspecialty.com/wp-content/uploads/marketing/Interactive-AAG.pdf "At A Glance") [17](https://www.bhspecialty.com/about-us/ "About Us") [20](https://www.bhspecialty.com/terms-conditions/ "Terms of Service") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: A description of BHSI's U.S. line list in its U.S. At A Glance section (version 2026-8-03 A) only. The guide says its descriptions are informational and are not coverage; its brand-level list does not assign an issuing insurer to a particular product or policy. This is not a claim that one legal insurer issues every BHSI product.; verified: 2026-09-29.)<br><br>Berkshire Hathaway Specialty Insurance Company (BHSIC) identifies itself in its Singapore-branch public disclosure as a Nebraska-domiciled direct property and casualty insurer, wholly owned by National Indemnity Company, which is wholly owned by Berkshire Hathaway Incorporated. The Singapore-branch disclosure states this ownership chain. A Missouri Department of Insurance record separately lists BHSIC as active, NAIC 22276, and Property and Casualty in Missouri. Neither source identifies BHSIC as the issuer of every BHSI-branded U.S. policy. [18](https://www.bhspecialty.com/asia/singapore-products/berkshire-hathaway-specialty-insurance-singapore-branch/ "Public Disclosure — Berkshire Hathaway Specialty Insurance Singapore Branch") [19](https://insurance.mo.gov/find-insurance-company/company-details?id=104347139 "Company Details — Berkshire Hathaway Specialty Insurance Company") [20](https://www.bhspecialty.com/terms-conditions/ "Terms of Service") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: Company-reported corporate identity and ownership in BHSI's Singapore-branch public disclosure, corroborated for company identity and Missouri P&C authority by the Missouri Department of Insurance record accessed 2026-09-28. Neither source maps BHSIC as issuer for every BHSI-branded U.S. product; use policy-specific documents for that.; verified: 2026-09-28.) |
| Application process | AIG lists a North America myAIG portal for brokers and agents to access loss runs, policy documents, applications, and tools, and a separate U.S. portal for producer appointment requests. The public pages do not establish that a business can complete an online purchase or bind coverage directly. [4](https://www.aig.com/login "AIG Login") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: Publicly listed North America broker/agent portal functions and U.S. producer appointment requests. Authenticated workflow and product-specific submission or binding steps were not reviewed.; verified: 2026-09-28.) | BHSI's website terms say online application or quote submissions are informational and nonbinding; only contracted agents of the National Indemnity group may bind coverage, issue policies or certificates, or change coverage. Group companies' authority also varies by state, so the terms do not show that every application must begin through an agent. [20](https://www.bhspecialty.com/terms-conditions/ "Terms of Service") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: The website's own online submissions and binding authority described by BHSI's terms; not a statement about every product's intake process or a claim that purchase can be completed online.; verified: 2026-09-28.) |
| Servicing and renewals | AIG lists its North America broker portal as a place for brokers and agents to access loss runs, policy documents, applications, and tools. The page does not explain how renewals are managed or promise renewal terms or timing. [4](https://www.aig.com/login "AIG Login") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: Public description of a North America broker/agent portal; authenticated functions and account-specific availability were not reviewed.; verified: 2026-09-28.) | BHSI’s U.S. Claims Service Standards document (version US 2024-10-07A) says coverage issues or reservations are discussed directly with insureds, brokers, and relevant parties, and brokers and policyholders are kept involved during third-party settlement discussions. These are company-stated process standards, not measured claims outcomes. [23](https://www.bhspecialty.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/Claims-Excellence-US.pdf "Claims Excellence — United States") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: Company-stated U.S. claims-service standards in version US 2024-10-07A; accessed 2026-09-28. Process commitments are not evidence of measured service or outcomes.; verified: 2026-09-28.)<br><br>BHSI's U.S. website terms and claims page reviewed on September 28, 2026 do not explain how commercial policy renewals are quoted or completed. The U.S. product directory opened for this correction displays category navigation, but it is not a review of the linked product pages. These limited checks do not establish that renewal support or a renewal route is unavailable. [21](https://www.bhspecialty.com/us-products/ "United States") [20](https://www.bhspecialty.com/terms-conditions/ "Terms of Service") [22](https://www.bhspecialty.com/claims/ "Claims — United States") (Evidence: Not found in reviewed sources; scope: A narrowly scoped research gap in the opened U.S. website terms and claims page and the U.S. product-directory landing page, checked 2026-09-28. The directory landing page provides category navigation only; linked product pages and account-specific servicing routes were not reviewed for this claim. This does not mean BHSI lacks renewal support.; verified: 2026-09-28.) |
