First Insurance Company of Hawaii: A History of Trust and Protection

For over a century, the First Insurance Company of Hawaii (FICOH) has been providing comprehensive insurance policies to residents and businesses in the Aloha State. Established in 1911, FICOH is the oldest insurance company in Hawaii and has played a vital role in protecting the community against unforeseen risks and losses.

The Early Years

When FICOH first opened its doors, Hawaii was still a territory of the United States, and the insurance industry was still in its infancy. The founders of FICOH recognized the need for reliable insurance providers in Hawaii, and so they set out to create a company that would provide top-quality insurance policies to the people of the islands.

At the time, there were only a handful of insurance providers in Hawaii, and many of them were based on the mainland United States. FICOH saw an opportunity to create a locally-based insurance company that could better understand the unique risks and challenges faced by Hawaiians.

Over the years, FICOH has weathered many challenges, including economic recessions, natural disasters, and changes in insurance regulations. However, the company has remained steadfast in its commitment to providing quality insurance products and exceptional customer service.
