In the realm of insurance, policyholders anticipate a sense of security and assurance that their insurer will uphold its commitments in times of calamity.
However, Chubb, one of the world's leading insurance firms, appears to have strayed from this path. The company, under the leadership of CEO Evan Greenberg, has been accused of prioritizing political activism over customer service.
Greenberg's political leanings are far from concealed. He has openly expressed his disdain for America First policies, labeling them as detrimental on numerous fronts. He has criticized President Trump's immigration reforms and dismissed concerns about border security. "He described it as harmful on multiple levels," said Will Hild, executive director of Consumers Research.
Greenberg has also denounced America's rejection of the "liberal world order" as a mistake and has taken issue with President Trump's trade policies aimed at bolstering the American economy.
According to Breitbart, Chubb's commitment to 'woke' politics extends beyond mere rhetoric. The company's leadership has publicly stated that "diversity, equity, and inclusion are the foundation of our Chubb culture."
This commitment is evident in the company's initiatives, such as mandatory anti-racism seminars for employees and the provision of a "race fluency toolkit" designed to "ingrain anti-racism within Chubbs culture." Chubb has also launched a platform titled "Race Matters" to "facilitate greater consciousness of racism and understanding of the Black experience."
The company further segregates its workforce into employee resource groups based on race and gender.
Greenberg has leveraged his influence to endorse transgenderist ideology, labeling a North Carolina law that prevents men from using women's bathrooms as a "threat to democracy." Chubb, through the Chubb Charitable Foundation, has financially supported The Trevor Project, an organization that provides resources to promote trans ideology among children.
The company also takes pride in its high score of 95 on the Human Rights Campaigns (HRC) Corporate Equality Index, a scoring system used to gauge support for the trans movement.
In stark contrast to the Trump administration's focus on reestablishing American energy dominance, Greenberg has steered Chubb in the opposite direction. The company announced that it would no longer insure coal plants and has pressured oil, gas, and other energy producers to comply with its climate mandates to qualify for insurance. Chubb even established a dedicated Climate Business Unit to promote a net-zero transition and stated that insurance needs to "play a bigger role in climate change adaptation."
Chubb has also ended its agreement to underwrite insurance for National Rifle Association insurance for gun owners, yielding to pressure from woke activists over its existing customers. The company has allocated $1.1 million to projects that advocate for equity, advance racial justice, and promote police reforms through the Chubb Rule of Law Fund.
These actions and statements underscore a clear shift: Chubb has transformed into a political entity. It promotes DEI programs, advocates ESG climate policies, funds radical causes such as transgender education for children, and seemingly treats its customers as an afterthought.
However, this focus on political ideology may be at the expense of customer service. During wildfire season, Chubb abandoned California families, and the company has been accused of delaying or denying claims to hurricane victims.
Illinois families were left grappling with severe mold and water damage while disputing with Chubb over payment. Some customers were even compelled to take their insurer to court just to have valid policies honored. Instead of reliability, they encountered resistance.
Insurance should symbolize trust and dependability. Families surrender their hard-earned money for the peace of mind that comes with knowing they are covered in times of disaster. However, Chubb's actions suggest that it values radical politics over this promise. It is crucial for American consumers to be aware of this reality.
