The Government Employees Insurance Company (abbreviated as GEICO) is an auto insurance company. GEICO ( ) is a wholly owned subsidiary of Berkshire Hathaway that as of 2007 provided coverage for more than 10 million motor vehicles owned by more than 9 million policy holders. GEICO writes private passenger automobile insurance in all 50 U.S. states and the District of Columbia. Rather than relying on agents to sell policies, GEICO uses a direct-to-consumer sales model and puts funds saved from not paying agent commissions toward the purchase of television advertising, with several campaigns running simultaneously in national markets. Its mascot is a green gecko with an Cockney accent. GEICO is well-known in popular culture for its advertising, having made a large number of commercials intended to amuse viewers.

There is also a popular gag about GEICO with it being "Could switching to GEICO really save you 15% or more on Car Insurance?".
