The producer reached out about a student housing account and asked if we could take over the property terms with Seneca, the GL with James River, and the excess with Scottsdale We were able to assume the Seneca property terms but didn't have access to James River, so we provided competing terms from Richmond on the GL matching James River's coverages and beating the price slightly and the Richmond excess underwriter saved a few thousand on the excess pricing

The prior program had all associations bundled under a single overpriced master policy, limiting flexibility and inflating premiums across the board We leveraged the collective buying power of the portfolio to negotiate individual placements for each association with one market, right-sizing coverage and pricing for each account The result was clean, broad coverage forms tailored to each association at a reduced premium compared to what they had been paying under the master

One of HUB's physician groups was purchased by another health system back in 2023. HUB continued to place the multi-specialty group ' s policy for a few years, but the health system decided to roll the group into their insurance program at the 2026 renewal In order to roll the group into their existing program, the health system needed to purchase an Unlimited Extended Reporting Period (ERP) for the group The incumbent carrier, Medical Protective, provided an Unlimited ERP quote to the four-physician group for $485,000 We were approached by HUB to find competing Standalone Extended Reporting Period options via our markets and came up with a handful of solutions, including the option from TDC Specialty Insurance Company, which ultimately bound at a premium of $377,086 After adding in surplus lines taxes and fees, we saved the client just shy of $95,000 in premium and came in 19 5% lower than the incumbent carrier This was also a huge showing for HUB, as they are trying to get in the door with the health system to review their insurance program
