Tue, October 18, 2022

Hartford has been established for over 211 years and is currently rated A+ by AM Best. Here are some Hartford highlights as they are not only a “purpose driven leader in insurance” but the Hartford Small Business department is why Halcyon can better service you!

What’s HOT with The Hartford Small Commercial:

Auto

  • Currently Hartford has seen HUGE success in Commercial Auto
  • Their auto appetite follows their General Liability appetite. Hartford can consider monoline on lower/moderate over-the-road exposures if fleet is between 2 and 25 power units.
    • Class of business needs to fit GL appetite as ultimately the opportunity to round out the account with other lines is essential
    • Classes like wholesalers/distributors, florists, janitors, dry cleaners that do pickup/drop off all require an additional line of business.
  • To quote auto, please be sure to collect the business owner’s (or one of their senior level day-to-day manager’s) first name, last name, DOB, HOME address, title, and verbal approval that it’s OK for HIG to run their Personal Insurance Score.
  • This is required to release a bindable quote
    Price flexibility available if needed
