President's Letter

I am excited to tell you about EIB. I had a vision for the future over 25 years ago when I was just beginning in the insurance industry. Since that time, I am happy to report that my vision has and is becoming a reality. My vision included having a nationwide network of insurance brokerage offices that could work together to find markets for hard-to-place risks. The result of my vision is EIB. With entities and affiliates possessing surplus lines licenses throughout the U.S., EIB will help you place your business.

At EIB, we understand the risks you ask us to place require skillful underwriting followed by attentive risk management to help limit exposure for your customers. In the event of a claim, we also realize each and every claim needs close attention, no matter how small. Your clients deserve to have their claims handled quickly and efficiently, ensuring that fair claims receive fair payment and that inflated claims don't simply get paid to avoid the cost of dispute resolution. If necessary, your clients deserve their "day in court." EIB will spend the time necessary to cover the details, but in the long run your customers benefit by being represented fairly, yet firmly.

We focus on what is really important - meeting your customer's needs. We may not always be the cheapest alternative, but we are stable and support our producers when other alternatives fail. Producers may leave us for a time, only to return when the alternative markets lose their ability to provide coverage - and we will be here when you need help. EIB is anxious to be of service to you. Give us a call with one of your hard-to-place risks today, and let us tell you, "yes, we can!"

We at EIB wish you all the best with your business and look forward to being of service.

Very truly yours,

RICK J. LINDSEY
President
