HULL GOING AFTER FLA. HOMEOWNERS BUSINESS:

Fort Lauderdale insurer Hull & Company is offering Florida insurance agents an “A XV” choice in homeowners coverage. The INTERNET based program, which allows agents 24/7 access to rate, quote, bind, and issue, was established in 1994. “We read about undercapitalized companies writing thousands of policies and we wonder why an agent would want to put their clients in such a precarious position when an A.M. Best’s ‘A XV’ alternative is aggressively writing business,” said Bruce Bowers, Personal Lines senior vice president. “When you factor in the ease of using our Internet based program and our program’s almost 10 years experience in the market, it really is a great solution.” For information on this program, contact Hull at (866) 417-4855.
