When comparing companies, some may think of the old adage, "No two businesses are the same." But upon closer look, this may not always be true. Consider the many successful companies in the insurance industry. Their services, approach to customers and financial resources may vary, but they're likely to share some things in common. It might be their commitment to company culture, their desire to recruit the best talent, or their ability to stay ahead of the latest technology. Whatever the case may be, companies that want to be successful often look to recognized industry trailblazers to make sure they're on the right track. Such companies aren't hard to find. In fact, Inc. found 5,000 companies that fit the bill. The media outlet's annual guide highlights the fastest-growing privately held companies in the U.S., as well as insights into how these businesses reached such lofty heights.

Methodology

Companies on the 2019 Inc. 5000 are ranked according to percentage revenue growth from 2015 to 2018. To qualify, companies must have been generating revenue by March 31, 2015. They must be U.S.-based, privately held, for-profit and independent — not subsidiaries or divisions of other companies — as of Dec. 31, 2018. The minimum revenue required for 2015 is $100,00; the minimum for 2018 is $2 million. Growth rates used to determine company rankings were calculated to three decimal places. Check out the slideshow above to see businesses operating in the property & casualty space that were included in Inc.'s rankings of the most successful privately-held companies in the U.S.  Related:
