Our team is led by Executive VP Mike Hogan and staffed by underwriters and placement specialists who focus on banks, credit unions, mortgage lenders and related institutions. We work the full marketplace — admitted and non-admitted — to find solutions for accounts that need broader capacity, specialty terms, or London market capacity. Ideal Accounts and Appetite This program is designed for financial institutions that have difficulty placing coverage with standard markets. Typical accounts that fit include: Community banks and regional banks with complex management or operational exposures Midsize mortgage lenders and specialty finance companies with prior claims or regulatory matters Institutions seeking standalone cyber, crime or fiduciary limits beyond admitted market appetite Banks requiring lender liability or bankers professional coverage with specific endorsements Accounts with straightforward operations, clean claims histories and routine limits are still best placed in admitted markets; this program targets the harder-to-place scenarios where tailored terms, broader wording or non-admitted capacity are needed. Coverage Highlights and Advantages Direct access to multiple markets — domestic, standard and Lloyd’s/London — through a single point of contact. Wide coverage options: Directors & Officers (D&O), Employment Practices Liability (EPLI), Cyber Liability, Fiduciary, Bankers Professional, Computer Crime, Lender Liability and Financial Institution Bond.

We will review eligibility, recommend target markets, and advise on terms or risk-mitigation steps that improve placement prospects. We place business on both admitted and non-admitted bases depending on the client’s needs and market availability. Because we work broad markets, we can often obtain capacity where admitted markets cannot. Turnaround time depends on complexity; straightforward risks can receive indications quickly, while complex placements may require market canvass.
