Territory Update

It’s official! PolicyCenter launched in New York on March 1, 2021, for new business and will be available for renewal business effective June 1, 2021. I am looking forward to the new opportunities this will allow us to cultivate together.

With the launch of PolicyCenter, we also released several product features, including Professional Liability, to make it easier for you to grow your business with us in these Programs:

• Religious Organizations
• Educational Institutions
• Nonprofit & Human Services

Additionally, PolicyCenter brings our comprehensive Cyber Suite Coverage Endorsement to policyholders. All new business will be quoted with Cyber Suite Coverage automatically as of March 1, 2021.

A series of new forms are coming soon, too! We are working closely with the New York Department of Insurance to get these forms approved:

• GuideVantage Coverage
• Religious Expression (Religious Organizations)
• Crisis Management (Nonprofit & Human Services and Education)
• Violent Incident (Religious Organizations)
• Legal Expense Reimbursement (Religious Organizations)

GuideOne is excited to offer PolicyCenter in New York, and it arrives at the perfect time for Nonprofit & Human Services. As you begin to work on your upcoming renewals for June 1 and July 1, I encourage you to review our appetite and call me to discuss any opportunities or questions you may have.

For more efficient processing, please be sure to include the required information when sending your submissions to commercial@guideone.com.

Warmest regards,

Denise
