We differentiate ourselves from other companies in the industry through our:

Knowledge and Experience
We develop most aspects of our client’s programs. This enables us to apply our vast experience and knowledge, bringing you custom made solutions at the inception of a program and affecting changes and improvements as the program matures.

Innovation
American Special Risk has been innovative in developing many new products in the marketplace in the areas of electronic banking, credit card fraud, identity theft, warranties, professional liability and alternative risk transfer.

As pioneers in the Automated Teller Machine industry, we developed some of the first policies for this burgeoning market. Today, American Special Risk is recognized as the market leader in this field bringing our innovation to bear for our client’s benefit.

Integrity
Our integrity with our trading partners brings credibility to our client’s insurance proposals. In a business founded on trust and good faith, we cherish our integrity, knowing it takes years to build a reputation and only seconds to destroy one.

Loyalty
American Special Risk enjoys trading relationships that date back several decades. We believe in doing business with people, developing enduring partnerships and valuing long-term relationships with trusted clients and insurers.

Market Intelligence
Our vast market intelligence allows us to readily place unusual and difficult risks. Frequently, a program can take several months to put together. In this fast-paced, ever-changing world, the viability of a program can change dramatically. Our market intelligence allows us to monitor new trends and developments and adjust recommendations as needed.

Service and Support
An insurance contract, after all is said and done, is ultimately a promise to pay. We take that promise seriously and pride ourselves on providing our clients with the highest levels of service in the areas of claims, accounting, policy issuance, risk management and account placement.

Our corporate vision is to be an innovative and professional company that brings expertise to the specialty insurance and reinsurance markets so that we exceed the demands of our trusted clients and establish ourselves as a leader in our chosen fields.

The mission of American Special Risk is to provide specialized, value-added products and services that improve the way companies manage and transfer risk. We make the process of purchasing insurance and reinsurance more stable, profitable and predictable for our clients.

We look forward to the opportunity to demonstrate the difference we can make to your insurance and reinsurance placements and welcome your inquiries.
