GNY Insurance Companies has begun writing in the state of Michigan as it continues to expand in the Midwest.
GNY is a group comprised of Greater New York Mutual Insurance Co., Insurance Company of Greater New York, Strathmore Insurance, and GNY Custom Insurance Co., a surplus-lines company.
GNY, which is licensed to do business in 44 states and the District of Columbia, expanded into the Midwest early in 2007 with Illinois.
“Due to our growth in this region we are dedicating staff to Michigan business, which will allow us to offer better service to our client-base,” Warren Heck, chairman and chief executive officer. “GNY has begun working with commercial insurance brokers in Michigan, and will subsequently expand into all of the Midwestern states.”
Colleen Frahm will manage the Michigan operation. Frahm has been active in the Michigan insurance arena for over 25 years, working in the underwriting and marketing fields for major carriers in the state.
The companies underwrite commercial multi-peril coverage in the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic regions of the country. GNY is an underwriter of habitational, light industrial, office building, restaurant risks, and shopping centers, as well as a broad range of additional commercial-lines classes. GNY has recently been ranked as one of the 2007 Super Regional Property Casualty Insurers by Insurance Journal.
