Thomas Lawson Email Address

President and Chief Executive Officer

FM Global's multinational presence and capabilities allow us to provide seamless insurance solutions, services and claims response around the world.

As FM Global’s president and chief executive officer, I lead the strategic and operational direction of the company, which insures business property in about 150 countries. My philosophy is based on three core values—loyalty, empowerment and mutual respect. These values are key to retaining the best clients and the best employees. They also align with FM Global’s focus on empowering our policyholder-owners to make their businesses more resilient. Prior to my appointment in 2014, I managed FM Global’s insurance operations in North America, South America, Europe-Middle East-Africa (EMEA) and Asia-Pacific in my role as executive vice president. During my 35-plus year tenure with the company, I have developed expertise in industrial manufacturing risk and gained extensive knowledge of the high-risk industry sectors, including forest products, chemical, pharmaceutical and power generation. My career has included positions managing FM Global’s engineering and research, forest products operations and underwriting among other operations management roles.
