Year after year, “Managing for the Long Run” appears in Old Republic’s annual report. We stand behind our words—but what do they mean? The long run isn’t measured in days or weeks or years. It’s measured in individuals, in our people. Their success is ours. For decades—a century and more.
Managing for the long run does not mean we can see the future. It means we are prepared for it. Relationships, opportunity, innovation—these are things that develop with time. Managing for the long run does not mean complacent. We are nimble in the face of change. However, making decisions for short-term gain has never been the way we do business. We focus on the future so we can stand behind our policyholders for generations to come.
