Our history, experience and commitment to the country makes us uniquely qualified to serve the growing insurance marketplace in China,” states Maurice R. Greenberg, chairman of Starr International Company, Inc.
Starr will expand the product portfolio, beyond the existing auto insurance programs, with an array of commercial property and casualty products.
