AssuredPartners public product or placement areas and items to verify
Public product or placement areaWhat the category can addressDecision points
Commercial packageThe cited AssuredPartners materials connect commercial package with commercial insurance, employee benefits, personal lines, and risk services now delivered within Gallagher. A commercial package can combine property and liability with selected coverage parts for an eligible organization. It is useful only when the schedule, classifications, limits, and endorsements reflect the actual operating footprint.Match each coverage part to the exposure, check shared and separate limits, review schedules and endorsements, and identify policies that still need a separate market; apply that check to AssuredPartners's stated focus on commercial insurance, employee benefits, personal lines, and risk services now delivered within Gallagher.
Management liabilityThe cited AssuredPartners materials connect management liability with commercial insurance, employee benefits, personal lines, and risk services now delivered within Gallagher. Management liability can include directors and officers, employment practices, fiduciary, crime, or related coverage. Entity type, ownership, financing, workforce, transactions, and prior knowledge influence structure.Compare insured-person and entity coverage, claims-made dates, exclusions, retention allocation, defense, employment terms, transaction provisions, and change-in-control wording; apply that check to AssuredPartners's stated focus on commercial insurance, employee benefits, personal lines, and risk services now delivered within Gallagher.
Cyber insuranceThe cited AssuredPartners materials connect cyber insurance with commercial insurance, employee benefits, personal lines, and risk services now delivered within Gallagher.

Specialty and excess liabilityThe cited AssuredPartners materials connect specialty and excess liability with commercial insurance, employee benefits, personal lines, and risk services now delivered within Gallagher. Specialty coverage can address risks that do not fit a standard package, often through tailored admitted or excess-and-surplus forms. The submission quality and policy wording matter more than a broad product label.Identify the issuing insurer and admitted status, covered operations, manuscript endorsements, exclusions, minimum premiums, taxes and fees, claims reporting, and cancellation terms; apply that check to AssuredPartners's stated focus on commercial insurance, employee benefits, personal lines, and risk services now delivered within Gallagher.
