EXCESS AND SURPLUS

When a risk doesn’t fit neatly into a standard market, experience, relationships and specialist knowledge can make all the difference.

That’s why Insurance Business America is once again looking to recognize the Top Specialist Wholesale Brokers, professionals who know their niches inside and out and consistently find a way forward when the path isn’t obvious.

Who comes to mind when you think of exceptional specialist expertise?

Perhaps it’s a broker who knows exactly where to find capacity for an unusual exposure, someone who can translate a complex risk into a solution underwriters can get behind, or a trusted partner who brings creativity, persistence and deep market relationships to every challenging placement.

Now is your opportunity to put those professionals in the spotlight.

Nominate the specialist wholesale brokers who have impressed you through their technical expertise, problem-solving ability, client focus, and contribution to the insurance industry.

Submit your entry by Friday, September 25, and make sure the people who stand out in your specialty get the recognition they deserve.

Winners will be revealed on the website in February.
