ProWriters Streamlines Cyber & Privacy Coverage Process

Agents and brokers can get comprehensive Cyber & Privacy coverage for most insureds in minutes.

Paoli, Pa. — April 1, 2014 — ProWriters (www.prowritersins.com) is now providing agents and brokers Cyber & Privacy coverage in minutes. With limited information, agents can get bindable terms subject to a very short application.

Now, with a streamlined process, it takes agents just minutes to get terms that can be bound.

“We believe time is our most valuable asset, so we have focused on only asking for the information that is needed and turning around terms as fast as possible,” Thornton said. “Through this process, we can work with agents to focus on discussing what their clients need and making sure they understand the coverage.”
