Why is independent agency status important?
An independent agency can compare multiple insurance carriers rather than offering only one option. This flexibility can help align policy structure with operational realities and budget considerations.
Is specialized insurance necessary for antiques and fine art?
Standard business or homeowners policies often do not adequately cover high-value, one-of-a-kind objects or temporary exhibition environments. Specialized policies are structured with these risks in mind.
