MultiNational Underwriters

Multinational Underwriters® (MNU) was established in 1998. It quickly became a recognized leader in the field of international health insurance, offering a complete portfolio of health and life insurance products to customers in over 130 countries. Sensing the increasing acceptance of the Internet as a medium for commercial transactions, MNU was among the first to make insurance products and services available via the World Wide Web. This innovation has continued to evolve and, at present, MNU customers can review coverage options, obtain quotes, purchase insurance and receive their insurance documents - all electronically, without human intervention, 24 hours a day. Today, many thousands of international insurance professionals host MNU’s electronic tools on their websites, and this number continues to grow. MNU’s entrepreneurial spirit does not stop in the marketing department.

In January 2008, MultiNational Underwriters® was acquired by HCC Insurance Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: HCC). Headquartered in Houston, Texas, HCC Insurance Holdings, Inc.
