Navigators Moves Corporate HQ to 'Insurance State'

The Navigators Group is the newest insurer to call Connecticut home. 

The specialty commercial P&C insurer says it has relocated its corporate headquarters to Stamford, Conn. The company was in Rye Brook, N.Y. 

Of its move to the “Insurance State,” CEO Stanley A. Galanski says the insurance group believes “the vibrant business community in Stamford and the growing insurance component of that community create the right environment for our headquarters, along with the advantages of Stamford's transportation hub and plentiful support services.”

Galanski says Gov. Dan Malloy and Insurance Commissioner Thomas Leonardi “made it very clear that they felt Navigators to be an attractive, growth-oriented company they wanted to bring to their state. They succeeded in making a compelling case for us to make the move to Connecticut and become a vital part of the state's world-leading insurance marketplace. We look forward to growing our presence in Connecticut and to being an active participant in the local community.”

Navigators' insurance operations are based in New York and London.
