Background
A $120 billion Fortune 100 company, Columbus, Ohio-based Nationwide Mutual Insurance Company operates its primary business in insurance (auto, homeowners and life) and investment services.
Jay Beighley, Vice President of Corporate Security, is responsible for the security of over 600 Nationwide facilities.
Utilizing CAP Index Data
Beighley has utilized CAP Index data for nearly 15 years, eight of those while working with Nationwide.
He and his team employ CAP Index data as part of due diligence in site selection, primarily to determine specific risk levels and implement consequent security measures.
Nationwide also relies on CAP Index reports to allocate relative security expenditures across company locations and in the mergers and acquisitions process.
Results
Beighley believes that CAP Index data is a reliable, affordable tool that enables companies to develop objective security standards and take the “guess work” out of making security-related decisions.
