Hoover's coverage by Nell Newton

Overview

When it comes to diversification, Loews definitely has the low-down. The holding company's main interest is insurance through publicly traded subsidiary CNA Financial, which offers commercial property/casualty coverage. Other wholly owned and partially owned holdings include hotels in the US and Canada through its Loews Hotels subsidiary. Its energy holdings include contract oil-drilling operator Diamond Offshore Drilling (which operates roughly 50 offshore oil rigs), interstate natural gas transmission pipeline systems operator Boardwalk Pipelines, and HighMount Exploration & Production (also natural gas).
