Keynote speaker, Clint Bruce presents “Pursuing Elite: How SEAL Leadership Principles Can Transform Your Agency.” During Clint’s time as a SEAL, he had the opportunity to deploy in various positions of command and leadership with three consecutive platoons, two of which were post 9-11. His story and the SEAL leadership and teamwork lessons he’s learned are compelling.

The 118th edition of the Independent Insurance Agent of Texas trade show will be held in San Antonio June 3-5 and we want to see you there.

The show is always a good time to catch up with our current customers and meet new agents looking for a premium finance partner. However, it’s also a great opportunity to light a little fire under your businesses.

This year’s show will feature Clint Bruce, a former Navy SEAL presenting “Pursuing Elite: How SEAL Leadership Principles Can Transform Your Agency.”

According to the IIAT website, “During Clint’s time as a SEAL, he had the opportunity to deploy in various positions of command and leadership with three consecutive platoons, two of which were post 9-11. His story and the SEAL leadership and teamwork lessons he’s learned are compelling.”

Get to know Florida

Commercial insurance premium financing is tightly regulated in Florida as with most states. With government regulation comes a bevy of rules and laws, compliance requirements and mandatory licensing. Here’s a brief overview for Florida agents looking for a solid, full-service premium finance partner.

Overview

The Florida Commissioner of Insurance issues a license for all commercial insurance premium finance companies operating in the state.
Finance agreements must include the total amount financed, a loan repayment schedule, any down payment needed to secure the loan, and total amount paid over the life of the note.
Failure to obtain the necessary licenses or articulate exact information in a loan agreement could void the agreement.
The State of Florida sets maximum fee and service charge amount levied in a business insurance finance agreement, so finance companies tend to compete on serve offering, ease of use and flexibility.
