What's the difference between a broker and a direct writer? Brokers work for you. Direct writers do not. At the end of the day, a broker's responsibility is to you as the insured. A direct writer's responsibility is to the insurer. Brokers work with you to deeply understand your risk, and create customized solutions based on their relationships with the underwriters and insurance companies who are best equipped to effectively handle your specific risks in the event of a claim. Direct writers will give you what you ask for, similar to a vending machine. If you don't know what to ask for - you might be surprised in the event of a claim. You may be an expert in your field, but unless you're also an insurance expert who deals with many risks day in and day out, the Dunning-Kruger effect may be playing into your insurance decisions. You don't know what you don't know, and if you don't know what to ask for - how do you know you will be appropriately covered in case of a claim? Brokers work for you. Our job is to know and assess your risk to ensure it is properly covered in case of a claim. Our legal duty is to you. And it's your duty as a corporate decision maker to find and engage with the best partners when it comes to managing your risk, so that at the end of the day, everyone that has an interest in the risk will be appropriately covered when the unexpected happens.
