From reading this board and its predecessor, the names I keep coming back to are Brookfield (BN and BAM) and Markel.
The names that repeatedly kept coming up years ago when Berkshire percentage wise was heavily insurance were WR Berkley and White Mountains. 2-3 years ago I recommended them when it comes to selecting 1/2 dozen 'fortress-like' companies. The others were Johnson&Johnson and Nestl'. I still would buy those 4 if I would sell my Berkshire for other 'forever' companies. None of them is ever cheap (In hindsight White Mountains was cheap in 2020). Have a look at their longterm charts. They are in that respect comparable to Berkshire as they are also as safe as safe gets - and profitable. I have no idea why nobody here mentions them anymore.
