January 14, 2025 — Tokio Marine Highland is celebrating the 30th anniversary of the launch of its Private Flood Division. A leading property and casualty underwriting agency, Tokio Marine Highland (formerly WNC Insurance Services) has developed a reputation for its expertise and its ability to provide clients with unique, niche solutions for their flood insurance needs.
“When I was hired by WNC in 1995 to create a Private Flood Division in Miami, I had the ability to build the Private Flood Division from scratch, and over the years we’ve matured, gained significant knowledge of the private flood space and assembled a team of consummate professionals committed to helping our clients in their time of need,” said Norman Henrich, CEO of Tokio Marine Highland. “It’s so rewarding to look back and see how we’ve grown as a division and a company, and we’re looking forward to continuing to help our customers for many more years to come.”
Heinrich, who served as President of the Private Flood Division until taking over as CEO of Tokio Marine Highland in 2022, began the division in his garage, growing the product line into a market leader with sustained underwriting profitability. A wholly owned subsidiary of Tokio Marine Kiln, Tokio Marine Highland offers a range of flood insurance solutions including Residential Primary Coverage, Commercial Primary Coverage, Excess Flood Insurance and Customized Flood Programs.
“Tokio Marine Highland has established itself as a leading provider of flood insurance solutions and the flood division continues to deliver excellence to its clients,” said Matthew Shaw, CEO of Tokio Marine Kiln. “We congratulate Tokio Marine Highland on reaching this milestone and look forward to seeing what the next 30 years brings.”
“Over the past three decades, we have been through dozens of storms and flood events, and our number one priority has always been our customers,” said Lauren Savage, President of Tokio Marine Highland’s Private Flood Services Division. “Assessing the damage after an event and getting money into our customers’ hands to help them repair and rebuild is our top priority. I am proud of our accomplishments, and we will continue to use our experience and expertise to meet the changing needs of our clients and partners for the next 30 years.”
