Are community banks being left behind as the bank insurance business lurches forward? While nine of every 10 U.S. banks with greater than $10 billion in assets distributed General Lines (Property/Casualty and Life/Health) insurance products during 1999, the ratio for community banks was fewer than four of 10.

POST-DEAL INTEGRATION WITH BANKS: CHALLENGES AND OPPORTUNITIES by Robbie Smith The acquisition of independent insurance agencies by banks has revealed a number of crucial issues that should be considered by anyone contemplating entering into or expanding their existing insurance distribution.
