BOSTON (April 13, 2023) – At Liberty Mutual Insurance, we exist to help people embrace today and confidently pursue tomorrow. Underpinned by our conviction that insurance is a force for social good, we are committed to addressing environmental and social challenges while delivering security for our customers, employees and communities.
