Dow Jones Description

UWC, as part of the original Universal Companies of Omaha, Nebraska was incorporated in 1982 to act as an administrator of vehicle service contracts. Members of the Motors Insurance Group began underwriting segments of UWC's business in 1999. On June 15, 2000, UWC became part of the Motors Insurance Group, and its vehicle service contracts are now exclusively insured by MIC General Insurance Corporation and Motors Insurance Corporation (collectively "MIC"). As a pioneer in vehicle service contract business, MIC has been involved in insuring vehicle service contract programs since 1972 and continues to demonstrate solid operating performance and strong capitalization. For UWC, its new status within the Motors Insurance Group provides the financial strength and long-term stability that is often lacking in the independent third party market. UWC provides products and services tailored to the unique needs of franchised and independent dealerships. UWC currently offers its products through hundreds of dealers across the United States and has serviced our customers in over 6,000 dealerships across North America. UWC's commitment to the industry is further evidenced by the tenure of our administrative and claims support staff, which has an average of over 15 years experience. Our claim adjustment staff alone has an average of over 19 years of auto industry experience.
