In its March Issue, Best’s Review examines how agents are seeking to gain an edge by becoming part of an agent network. The scope of the assistance that these networks provide has grown in recent years to include services like business development, technology and ancillary advice, insurance leaders say. Like the broader insurance industry, agent networks have been boosted by the recent entrance of private equity. Read “Agent Networks Offer More Tools, Access.”

Another article looks at how Trucordia, among other consolidators and aggregators, acquires smaller agencies and brokerages to assemble them under one roof rather than create a network. Read “Pursuing Growth One Acquisition at a Time.”
