Independent Broker Selection

Fortify Risk’s Independent Broker Selection Process (IBSP) guides businesses in choosing the right insurance partner to secure optimal coverage, unbiased advice, and tailored risk management solutions. Unlike captive agents, independent brokers provide access to multiple carriers, allowing greater policy flexibility, competitive pricing, and effective claims advocacy.

Our structured IBSP evaluates brokers based on critical factors such as industry expertise, carrier networks, reputation, claims management capabilities, success examples, employee tenure and experience, and transparency.

We develop C-Suite weighted decision grids to standardize and streamline the decision-making process. We assist businesses through every step of the selection process—from clearly defining risk exposures, reviewing current insurance programs, identifying coverage gaps, requesting detailed proposals, conducting thorough broker evaluations, and negotiating final agreements.

Fortify Risk emphasizes long-term broker partnerships focused on ongoing risk mitigation, efficiency in claims handling, cost optimization, and transparent communication. By selecting the right independent broker through our rigorous process, your organization ensures sustained protection, proactive risk management, and strategic financial stability.
