Creating Sustained Value at Travelers
Our long-term success depends not only on our business strategy and competitive advantages but also on keeping our promise to be there for our customers, communities and employees - or what we call the Travelers Promise. For this reason, we take an integrated approach to sustained value creation.
To focus our reporting on the topics most relevant to our industry, business and stakeholders, we have identified 16 key drivers of sustained value at Travelers. These topics:
Are integral to our ability to create shareholder value over time and execute on our long-term business strategy.
Allow us to effectively convey our holistic approach to risks and opportunities.
Help us communicate the inextricable link between our corporate purpose of fulfilling the Travelers Promise and our mission of creating long-term shareholder value.
As discussed in further detail under About Our Sustainability Reporting, the topics covered in our report were informed by extensive engagements with our shareholders and a prioritization exercise that assessed the relevance of potential topics to our industry, our business and our stakeholders.

CEO Message
At Travelers, we manage risk for our customers, and for more than 170 years, they've trusted us to be there when it matters most. The strong results we delivered in 2024 not only benefit our shareholders but also empower us to be there for the customers and communities we are privileged to serve, especially during their times of greatest need. That took on particular importance last year as we faced record-breaking natural catastrophes. Our team of more than 30,000 committed employees rose to the occasion with countless individual acts
of excellence - helping families and businesses recover, building resilience in affected communities and underscoring the value at the heart of our business.
Our continued success requires that we do three things successfully: perform, transform
and make good on the Travelers Promise.
At Travelers, perform is the flywheel that sets everything we do in motion. Perform for us means executing on our long-term financial strategy to generate industry-leading returns on equity over time. Our return on equity has significantly outperformed the average return on equity for the industry in each of the past 10 years, reflecting the value of our competitive advantages and the discipline with which we run our business.
Our formidable competitive advantages are the foundation of our success. However, we understand that the competitive advantages that have fueled our achievements over the past decade will not necessarily be the same as those we will need to continue to lead for the next decade. Consequently, transform means positioning the company to continue to perform by ensuring that our competitive advantages remain relevant and differentiating into the future. To that end, we have embraced an ambitious innovation agenda guided by our vision to be the undeniable choice for the customer and an indispensable partner for our agents and brokers.
The Travelers Promise is a commitment to take care of our customers, our communities and each other. This includes being there to help our customers recover after the storm and also giving them the security they need to invest in their families and businesses. It also includes caring for the communities in which we live and work by supporting academic and career success, and promoting the
development of thriving neighborhoods and enriched communities. After all, Travelers cannot achieve its full potential if the communities we serve do not reach theirs. Finally, it is about making Travelers a great place to work for our employees - the best talent in the industry - and a great partner for our agents and brokers. In the end, the Travelers Promise is about taking care of the people we are privileged
to serve.

Put another way, for Travelers, sustainability comes down to this: Only by successfully delivering on our perform and transform agenda will we earn the resources we need to keep the Travelers Promise. And only by faithfully keeping the Travelers Promise will we earn the support of key stakeholders essential to our perform and transform success. That is how we are going to deliver results next quarter and succeed for the next quarter century.
With that in mind, I invite you to read on about our holistic approach to creating shareholder value over time.
