The National Association for Female Executives (NAFE) has named Zurich Insurance as one of its top 60 companies for female decision makers in 2017. This is the second year the company has been awarded the honor.

Through the award, NAFE recognizes American firms where women have significant clout in the decision making process, its strategy for the future, and the bottom line.

“This recognition from NAFE is the result of Zurich’s deliberate focus on creating a workplace environment that nurtures the development of our people,” Mike Foley, Zurich North America chief executive, said in a company statement.
