Travelers Cos., the only property-casualty insurer in the Dow Jones Industrial Average, said Chief Executive Officer Jay Fishman has been diagnosed with a neuromuscular condition.

“While fortunately it has so far been slow progressing, you may soon see me with a cane or other gear to help me get around,” Fishman said in a letter to employees released yesterday by the New York-based insurer. “Nothing about this circumstance changes my ability or plan to continue as chairman and CEO.”
