Insurance Companies and Markets BrokerUnion Works With
Short answer
BrokerUnion Insurance places business with 49 named insurance companies, specialty insurers and managing general agents across personal auto and property, commercial, specialty, life, group benefits and travel. The markets available on any individual file depend on the product, the risk and the location.
Availability depends on product, risk, location, underwriting criteria and BrokerUnion's applicable market agreements. Not every market is available for every risk, and market relationships change over time.

How to use this list
A broker can only place business with insurers it holds a market agreement with, and those agreements are product-specific. Rather than publishing a number alone, we publish the markets themselves so you can ask which of them apply to your file. If you want to know which markets were approached on your quote, ask your broker, we will tell you, including which markets declined.
