# Berkshire Hathaway Specialty Insurance vs Chubb

Chubb explicitly describes technology risk engineering across physical, cyber and professional risks; BHSI’s U.S. guide organizes its broader specialty offerings by products and industry segments.

## Before You Quote

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

## Highlights

Chubb’s technology page addresses startups through multinationals and names technology underwriting, claims and risk engineering for physical, cyber, professional and contractual exposures. BHSI also publishes a broad U.S. specialty portfolio, but specific products and authorized binding agents depend on the submission and state. A technology business coordinating hardware, software and customer contracts should compare who will coordinate risk engineering and how each proposed line is placed, not assume the broad catalogues mean the same program.

### 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.).

Statutory capital, surplus and results are reported only in combination across the subsidiary group, and no current product is mapped to an issuing entity, so the issuing entity’s own resources are not established.); Claims and Servicing (The evidence does not sufficiently establish responsibility, access and escalation across the assessed services.); Regulatory Conduct (A complete, exact-entity regulatory-conduct review for the preceding five years is unavailable.).

## Introduction

Chubb’s U.S. technology page describes insurance for startups through multinationals across physical and digital risks, and names dedicated technology underwriting, claims and risk engineering, including E&O risk engineering focused on exposure evaluation and contractual risk. BHSI’s U.S. guide also presents a broad specialty portfolio with product and industry segments. Its terms add an important placement condition: online submissions are nonbinding, and only contracted National Indemnity group agents with state authority may bind, issue or change coverage. For a technology company coordinating software services, hardware, property and customer contracts, Chubb’s published technology-specific risk-engineering and multi-line framing is a concrete service to compare with the underwriting and service scope BHSI proposes. Neither carrier’s general pages establish a particular account’s terms or eligibility.

## 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 Between Chubb and Berkshire Hathaway Specialty Insurance

### Technology risk and multi-line coordination

Chubb explicitly describes a technology practice spanning property, casualty, cyber and professional liability, with dedicated underwriting and claims teams and risk consultants. Its page says E&O risk engineering can focus on exposure evaluation and contractual risk management. BHSI’s U.S. materials organize a wide specialty portfolio by product and industry segments, but do not in the reviewed passages describe the same technology-specific risk-engineering deliverable. That makes service scope a useful comparison point for a company whose customer indemnities or mixed hardware/software operations need specialist review; it does not show that BHSI lacks risk engineering or could not provide similar advice.

Startups through multinationals in software, technology services, communications and hardware can ask Chubb about technology insurance; its small-business BOP also lists technology among 500+ classes for firms with up to $30 million revenue. [28](https://www.chubb.com/us-en/business-insurance/industries/technology.html "Insurance For Technology Companies") [31](https://www.chubb.com/us-en/business-insurance/chubb-bop.html "Business Owner’s Policy (BOP) Insurance") [29](https://www.chubb.com/us-en/business-insurance/software-system-developers.html "Insurance For Software Product & System Developers") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: Company marketing of industry appetite and BOP eligibility. It does not establish that a particular Bay Area startup will be quoted or bound.; verified: 2026-09-16.)

[28](https://www.chubb.com/us-en/business-insurance/industries/technology.html "Insurance For Technology Companies")

BHSI's U.S. industry focus spans real estate, public entities, financial institutions, healthcare, education, manufacturing, retail, logistics, transportation, energy, and technology. The at-a-glance guide associates these industries with particular product segments; it does not say every segment serves every listed industry. [1](https://www.bhspecialty.com/wp-content/uploads/marketing/Interactive-AAG.pdf "At A Glance") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: Company-stated industry focus in the United States section of the At A Glance (U.S. section version 2026-8-03 A); industry lists are segment-specific, not a universal eligibility statement.; verified: 2026-09-29.)

### Access and binding path

Chubb’s commercial technology page directs buyers to get a quote and its small-account process is agent/broker oriented; its broader commercial service materials describe agents as a central service contact for many policies. BHSI’s terms provide a more explicit rule for its own online intake: a web submission is nonbinding, and a contracted group agent with state authority must bind. For a business with a fixed customer deadline, ask both providers to identify the person handling the submission and the precise written confirmation that places coverage in force.

Most commercial buyers need an independent agent or broker to reach Chubb; surplus-lines products require a licensed surplus-lines producer. Chubb appoints producers and operates agent portals, while Chubb Insurance Solutions Agency, Inc. administers Chubb Access appointments. [53](https://www.chubb.com/us-en/agents-brokers/get-chubb-access.html "Get Access To Chubb") [54](https://www.chubb.com/us-en/contact.html "Contact Chubb") [26](https://www.chubb.com/us-en/terms-of-use.html "Terms Of Use") [62](https://www.chubb.com/content/dam/chubb-sites/chubb-com/us-en/campaign/pdfs/55010055_NewYork-2022-24-05.pdf "Chubb New York Region Appointment Materials") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: U.S. distribution as described on agent-access, contact and terms pages. This does not mean every independent agent is appointed for every product.; verified: 2026-09-16.)



Eligible small businesses can get agent-assisted quotes through Chubb Marketplace, with Cyber Central offering an express cyber route; the described online path is for appointed agents and brokers, not a general-public bind for middle-market technology programs. Cyber risks under $100 million revenue may qualify; referred risks go to underwriters. [33](https://www.chubb.com/us-en/business-insurance/products/cyber-insurance.html "Cyber Insurance For Businesses") [34](https://www.chubb.com/us-en/business-insurance/products/cyber-insurance/cyber-insurance-products.html "Cyber Insurance Coverage & Products") [54](https://www.chubb.com/us-en/contact.html "Contact Chubb") [55](https://www.chubb.com/us-en/contact-us.html "Chubb Insurance In The U.S.") [36](https://www.chubb.com/us-en/business-insurance/forefront-3-0-private-company.html "ForeFront Portfolio 3.0 For Private Companies") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: U.S. agent platforms and buyer contact paths as of 16 September 2026. Quote speed and bindability are not guaranteed for any applicant.; verified: 2026-09-16.)



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. [5](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.)

## What to Confirm in Quotes

- Ask Chubb whether technology risk engineering is included, optional or separately scoped; identify who reviews customer contracts and whether the advice covers the specific lines quoted. [28](https://www.chubb.com/us-en/business-insurance/industries/technology.html "Insurance For Technology Companies")
- Ask BHSI which product segment and underwriting team would handle each exposure, which insurer appears on the policy, and which contracted agent can bind in the relevant state. [1](https://www.bhspecialty.com/wp-content/uploads/marketing/Interactive-AAG.pdf "At A Glance") [5](https://www.bhspecialty.com/terms-conditions/ "Terms of Service")
- Compare proposed property, cyber, professional-liability and casualty forms, including limits, deductibles, exclusions and claims contacts; neither industry page replaces the policies.

| Criteria | Berkshire Hathaway Specialty Insurance | Chubb |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Business role | 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. [1](https://www.bhspecialty.com/wp-content/uploads/marketing/Interactive-AAG.pdf "At A Glance") [2](https://www.bhspecialty.com/about-us/ "About Us") [5](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.

Neither source maps BHSIC as issuer for every BHSI-branded U.S. product; use policy-specific documents for that.; verified: 2026-09-28.) | Businesses buying Chubb coverage receive a policy from a US underwriting company, not from Chubb Limited, the Swiss holding company. Chubb is the marketing name for the group’s insurance subsidiaries and related services. [63](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/896159/000089615926000005/cb-20251231.htm "Chubb Limited Form 10-K For The Year Ended 31 December 2025") [26](https://www.chubb.com/us-en/terms-of-use.html "Terms Of Use") [49](https://www.chubb.com/us-en/surety.html "Surety Bonds") (Evidence: Verified; scope: Group identity from the 2025 Form 10-K Item 1 and U.S. website legal disclosures. The holding company is not the risk-bearing insurer on a given U.S. policy.; verified: 2026-09-16.)<br><br>Most commercial buyers need an independent agent or broker to reach Chubb; surplus-lines products require a licensed surplus-lines producer. Chubb appoints producers and operates agent portals, while Chubb Insurance Solutions Agency, Inc. administers Chubb Access appointments. [53](https://www.chubb.com/us-en/agents-brokers/get-chubb-access.html "Get Access To Chubb") [54](https://www.chubb.com/us-en/contact.html "Contact Chubb") [26](https://www.chubb.com/us-en/terms-of-use.html "Terms Of Use") [62](https://www.chubb.com/content/dam/chubb-sites/chubb-com/us-en/campaign/pdfs/55010055_NewYork-2022-24-05.pdf "Chubb New York Region Appointment Materials") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: U.S. distribution as described on agent-access, contact and terms pages. This does not mean every independent agent is appointed for every product.; verified: 2026-09-16.) |
| Customer focus | BHSI's U.S. industry focus spans real estate, public entities, financial institutions, healthcare, education, manufacturing, retail, logistics, transportation, energy, and technology. The at-a-glance guide associates these industries with particular product segments; it does not say every segment serves every listed industry. [1](https://www.bhspecialty.com/wp-content/uploads/marketing/Interactive-AAG.pdf "At A Glance") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: Company-stated industry focus in the United States section of the At A Glance (U.S. section version 2026-8-03 A); industry lists are segment-specific, not a universal eligibility statement.; verified: 2026-09-29.)<br><br>Within its U.S. executive-lines commercial and financial segment, BHSI lists publicly traded and large privately owned commercial firms; investment, money-center, national, and regional banks; asset managers; and insurance companies and brokerages. The size description applies to the commercial-firm entry, not every listed institution or all BHSI products. [1](https://www.bhspecialty.com/wp-content/uploads/marketing/Interactive-AAG.pdf "At A Glance") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: Only the U.S. Executive Lines, Commercial & Financial segment, At A Glance p. 50. The “publicly traded and large privately owned” qualifier attaches to the Commercial Firms bullet only.; verified: 2026-09-28.) | Startups through multinationals in software, technology services, communications and hardware can ask Chubb about technology insurance; its small-business BOP also lists technology among 500+ classes for firms with up to $30 million revenue. [28](https://www.chubb.com/us-en/business-insurance/industries/technology.html "Insurance For Technology Companies") [31](https://www.chubb.com/us-en/business-insurance/chubb-bop.html "Business Owner’s Policy (BOP) Insurance") [29](https://www.chubb.com/us-en/business-insurance/software-system-developers.html "Insurance For Software Product & System Developers") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: Company marketing of industry appetite and BOP eligibility. It does not establish that a particular Bay Area startup will be quoted or bound.; verified: 2026-09-16.) |
| Application process | 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.
