MEMIC pays $15M in dividends
By The Mainebiz News Staff
MEMIC's Board of Directors this morning voted to distribute $15 million in dividends to its Maine policyholders.
In November, the Portland-based insurance company will send checks to 20,000 Maine employers who were policyholders in 2005. Employers will receive 9.5% of the premium they paid that year, from $25 to as much as $170,000 for the largest employers, according to the company.

The Maine Legislature created MEMIC -- the Maine Employers Mutual Insurance Co. -- in 1993 to tackle the workers comp crisis in the state. Since 1998, MEMIC has returned more than $100 million to policyholders in the form of dividends and capital.
