Relation Insurance Services Named “2018 Elite Agency”

Business Wire

Fourth Consecutive Year as Top 35 Independent Brokerage

WALNUT CREEK, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Relation Insurance Services (“Relation”), an insurance brokerage that offers risk-management, benefits, and TPA-consulting services through its family of brands across the United States, is delighted to announce it has been honored by Insurance Business America (“IBA”) as a 2018 Elite Agency. This is the fourth consecutive year Relation has earned this title, which honors the industry’s top 35 independent agencies and brokerages.

“It is an honor to be named an Elite Agency for the fourth straight year,” said Joe Tatum, Chief Executive Officer, Relation Insurance. “Our goal is to be the best possible partner for our customers and that starts with a commitment to our employees. By bringing the tools, resources and strategic carrier partnerships they need to offer intelligent, tailored solutions, we are uniquely suited to help companies respond to the changing business environment and risk landscape. This approach continues to fuel our growth both organically and through acquisition.”

The agencies honored range in size, but all have achieved $25 million or more in revenue last year, and have secured year-over-year growth halfway through 2018. To compile the list, Insurance Business America analyzed various criteria, from growth and innovation throughout the year, training initiatives, and mentorship programs, to community-outreach efforts. The resulting report highlights each company’s accomplishments and offers a glimpse into the operations, culture, and values that make each agency prosperous.

Relation, formerly known as Ascension Insurance, Inc., changed its name in January, in order to better reflect the company’s commitment to helping mid-market companies navigate the complex world of insurance by building strong relationships and leveraging the right mix of people, partnerships, processes, and technologies.
