What We Do

Shelter Insurance® is a property casualty insurance company offering auto and home insurance in addition to several other insurance products, including:
Life Insurance
Renters Insurance
Motorcycle Insurance
RV Insurance
ATV Insurance
Boat Insurance
Umbrella Insurance
Personal Articles/Inland Marine Insurance

Business Insurance
Shelter Insurance® products are sold by agents in 15 states— Arkansas, Colorado, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Nebraska, Nevada, Ohio, Oklahoma and Tennessee. We consistently receive high ratings from A.M. Best Company (a national firm that rates the financial strength and operating performance of insurance companies) and we are a mutual insurance company, which means we are owned by our policyholders rather than stockholders, and governed by a Board of Directors.
We believe integrity and a commitment to continuous improvement are essential, and we make customer service one of our top priorities. Our primary goal is to be a benefit to our customers, communities, employees and our nearly 1,400 licensed agents as we find ways to maintain our strong financial position and protect our policyholders. That view has served us well throughout our company’s history, and we expect it to carry us well into the future.
The Past to the Present
We opened our doors in 1946, but in those days, we were MFA Mutual Insurance® and we only offered auto insurance. We also only operated in Missouri. Through the years, the Shelter Insurance Group of Companies has expanded to 21 states and offers far more products than we did in 1946. The Group of Companies includes Shelter Life Insurance Company, Shelter Reinsurance® and AmShield Insurance®.
Our Vision
Redefine value in the insurance industry.
Our Mission Statement
Be a leader in our communities by providing daily value while we SHELTER what matters most.
