BRIARCLIFF MANOR — USI Insurance Services recently closed the acquisition of certain assets of National Insurance Specialists, which is expected to contribute approximately $1.6 million in revenues to USI on an annual basis. Terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
The acquired entity will be integrated into USI Affinity, a division of USI Insurance Services. USI Affinity is one of the nation's leading providers of insurance, financial and risk management services to professional associations, individuals and small business owners, including the equipment rental industry. This transaction makes USI Affinity the number one equipment rental industry insurance broker in the country.
“We have the staff that really understands the rental equipment business and the risks they face,” said Doug Kreitzberg, CEO of USI Affinity. “USI and NIS have deep experience over many years handling these types of accounts. This move greatly strengthens USI Rental Specialties' fully integrated approach that combines sales, underwriting, customer service, claims and risk control.
“Our operation provides high-quality insurance and related services to the rental industry in the United States,” said Brian Hall, former president of NIS and the new president of USI Rental Services. “Our field agents and customer service staff are talented and experienced professionals whose sole aim is to provide high-quality service and insurance protection for the client.”
