Your clients with high net-worth have unique risks and exposures not always covered by a standard HO policy. AIG has put together a flyer that you can use to pitch coverage to your high-net clients or potential clients. It includes pitches such as:
  1. The old axiom is not to have all your eggs in one basket, but in insurance that can be reversed. Putting all coverages together may simplify paperwork when filing a claim and helps avoid the gaps that patch-work coverage can leave.
  2. Specialists for exposures more common among the affluent such as Equine, multinational liability and property, and high-end autos.
  3. Personal Excess - With more to lose this becomes a need, not a nice-to-have.
  4. Replacement Cost - Building costs are nearly recession-proof, even if housing prices aren't.
  5. Coverage for collections and the preservation expertise to identify threats to its value.
    1. Fine Art
    2. Jewelry
    3. Wine
    4. Couture
    5. Preservation Expertise
  6. Beyond coverage there is risk avoidance for boats, cyber attacks, ice inside and out, and more.

ARMR Network's newest environmental insurance program, ARMR HPRTM, is bigger than ever before!

Environmental losses can happen to any commercial building, no matter the age, size, or location. As insurers apply pollution, mold, and bacteria exclusions more consistently on commercial property owners and managers' Commercial General Liability and commercial property policies, environmental policies are more important than ever before.

Never sold an environmental policy to a commercial property owner or manager before? No problem! American Risk Management Resources is a world renowned environmental insurance wholesale broker and expert witness. Find out more by visiting us on the Big "I" Markets under Pollution Contractors-Farms-USTs-Other or at www.armr.net.

We are very excited to announce the newest ARMR-designed program, ARMR HPR™, which will be released January 4, 2018 to every independent insurance agent across the country. This program is only available through ARMR.Net; you will not want to miss this!

ARMR HPRTM is the easiest and most efficient new business production opportunity available in your commercial property owner and manager book of business.
