FM Global Expands Footprint in India with New Innovative Centre in Bengaluru

FM Global, a global leader in commercial property insurance, has announced the launch of a new Centre of Excellence in Bengaluru as part of its expansion in India. The facility will enhance FM’s global operations by advancing science-based risk engineering, artificial intelligence capabilities, and regional growth initiatives.

Located in Bengaluru, India’s innovation and tech hub, the centre will drive collaboration across FM’s global teams and feature a client experience zone focused on training and showcasing FM’s risk mitigation and loss prevention solutions.

The move aligns with India’s growing stature as a global economic and manufacturing hub, reinforcing FM’s commitment to supporting clients with cutting-edge risk management services.

Complementing the Bengaluru expansion, FM will also open a new sales office in Mumbai later this year. The Mumbai office will help the company strengthen its presence in the country’s financial capital, bringing it closer to key clients and decision-makers in one of India’s most dynamic business hubs. FM has maintained a presence in India since 2003, and these latest moves signal a deepened commitment to supporting Indian and regional clients with localized expertise and a global knowledge network.

To lead this ambitious initiative, FM has appointed Srini Krishnamurthy to senior vice president, FM India. Based in Bengaluru, Krishnamurthy will report to Randy Hodge, chief operating officer of FM, and oversee the execution of FM India’s multi-year vision, including site operations, cross-functional team leadership, and infrastructure development. To support the expansion, FM plans to increase headcount in India and will offer career opportunities for a variety of roles.

“India is not just a growth market, it’s becoming a global centre for innovation, infrastructure, artificial intelligence, and talent,” said Krishnamurthy. “The Bengaluru centre represents a critical step in FM’s mission to build science-based solutions that empower our clients to manage risk and thrive in an increasingly complex world. This is more than a regional investment; it’s a global commitment to resilience, backed by world-class talent and deep client collaboration.”

FM’s expansion in Bengaluru and Mumbai highlights the company’s commitment to support clients in high-growth regions, while tapping into one of the richest engineering and technology talent pools in the world.
