Company Description

Since 1993, Professional Program Insurance Brokers (PPIB) has been providing agents, brokers and wholesale brokers nationwide with unique insurance solutions for challenging risks. From tattoo parlors and medi-spas to pyrotechnics, we offer proprietary insurance programs available in all states.

Why We’re Different

  • No premium commitments to access current programs
  • Quick quote turnaround, competitive pricing and ever expanding product offerings
  • Higher commissions for wholesale brokers
  • Quotes available without a broker agreement, although necessary to bind
  • Specialized coverage options targeted to each industry, including General Liability, Professional Liability, Products Liability, Property, Workers’ Compensation and Cyber Liability for cutting-edge industries

Most importantly, we are innovative, responsive and flexible so you can provide outstanding service your customers expect.

Program Design

PPIB has successfully created individualized programs for associations, franchises and homogeneous risks from the ground up. Having strong relationships in the Excess and Surplus Lines market gives you the carrier access you need. We also help you avoid concerns that arise with new programs such as lack of exclusivity, large premium commitments and the requirement to move an existing book to support new premium. We can offer exclusive access to brokers and will assist with forms and endorsements, rating methodology, underwriting guidelines and applications.

Additional Services

  • Customized marketing brochures
  • Co-branded applications
  • Industry-specific forms, such as consent, medical and aftercare
  • Industry research and education
  • Option for a program management system
