The Hartford currently has 95 operating companies with approximately 24,500 employees and an approximate consolidated GAAP Equity for HIG of $22.9 billion as of December 31, 2011. The Hartford’s history dates back over two centuries. On May 10, 1810, the Connecticut General Assembly passed an act to incorporate The Hartford Fire Insurance Company. In 1822, The Hartford reinsured the New Haven Fire Insurance Company – one of the first instances of reinsurance in America. In 1825, The Hartford wrote the first fire insurance policy for an American institution of higher learning – Yale University. In 1970, The Hartford was acquired by ITT Corporation for $1.5 billion – the largest corporation takeover in American history to date. In 1981, Hartford Life became the first major insurer to introduce universal life insurance coverage. In 1984, The Hartford won the contract to provide auto and homeowners insurance to members of the AARP – an agreement that is still in place today. In 1995, The Hartford became an independent entity from ITT Corporation and began trading on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “HIG.” In 1997, The Hartford changed its name from ITT Hartford Group, Inc. to The Hartford Financial Services Group, Inc. In 2000, The Hartford Mutual Funds reached $10 billion in assets faster than any other retail-oriented mutual fund family in history. In 2010, The Hartford proudly celebrated its 200th anniversary. The Hartford is consistently recognized for its superior service, its sustainability efforts, and as one of the world’s most ethical companies.
