About Us

Brown & Riding is an experienced wholesale insurance broker and general agency, independent and owned by key employees. Our 29-year track record of success is about harnessing the power of simple ideas.

Get the best deals

How? Strong relationships with leading markets. Detailed knowledge of client industries, coverages and policy forms. Continual staff training. Thorough and proactive marketing of both new AND renewal business.

Because we know the market so well and pre-underwrite risks, our underwriting submissions get priority attention from underwriters. That means better hit ratios and happier policyholders.

Reduce client costs

We are fast, accurate and we live by a "no surprises" philosophy. We keep you in the loop at all times, by phone, fax, email or through our Internet portal that provides 24/7 access to the status of your submissions to markets.

We work on quality every single day, as evidenced by our ISO 9001:2000 Certification. We were the first insurance wholesaler in the country to earn this certification, and are reviewed every 6 months by an independent entity to keep this prestigious certification.

Leverage the power of the whole firm

When you work with Brown & Riding, you get access to a deep network of relationships and the collective capabilities of the entire firm, not just an individual. Brown & Riding’s culture is driven by deeply held values of teamwork, quality, and professionalism and we hold ourselves strictly accountable to these high standards.

In fact, we ask our clients to score us on hundreds of transactions in a number of categories. We've improved in every category over the past four years; check out the survey results here to see why we're growing fast and still maintaining the highest levels of quality service in the marketplace today.
