The W. R. Berkley Corporation is an insurance holding company based in Greenwich, Connecticut. Founded in 1967, it ranks among the largest commercial lines writers in the United States and operates worldwide across two property casualty segments: Insurance and Reinsurance. Its operating units focus on niche markets that require specialized knowledge about specific industries, products, or territories. The company serves commercial clients seeking tailored risk coverage and underwrites through specialized units rather than a single broad line of business. In June 2026, it announced the appointment of Kirk A. Parker as president of Berkley North Pacific. This leadership change reflects the ongoing management adjustments within its specialized insurance units.
