What Makes Us Different

Historically, logistics and risk management professionals have experienced frustration with traditional insurance procurement models. Generalist insurance brokers sell all lines of insurance, but do not have the expertise to service what they sell. These generalist brokers obtain quotes and place coverage, yet they are not equipped to help you when there is a claim.

Without the right partner, claims can be an expensive, frustrating, and time-consuming process. ECIB personally handles claims for our clients after placing the policy, ensuring that you always have someone in your corner. This gives you the peace of mind to know that your claims will be resolved quickly and accurately. Our background in logistics and hands-on approach to claim subrogation provide access to lower rates and broader coverage.
