CompWest Quarterly — August 2023

AF Group Named to Ward’s 50 — Five Years Running!

We’re proud to share we’ve been named to the Ward’s 50 list of top performing insurance companies for 2023!

A leading provider of benchmarking and best practice studies for the insurance industry, Ward examined nearly 3,000 property/casualty and life/health insurance companies to determine their top performer list. Their recognition of our organization was based on our outstanding results in the areas of safety, consistency and superior performance during a five-year period.

As we celebrate this repeated honor, we want to offer our thanks to you, our valued agents, for the role you play in our success. Thank you for trusting us with your business — and for the extraordinary partnerships we continue to build year after year.

AF Group/AmeriTrust Integration Update

Following the announcement of our acquisition of AmeriTrust Group earlier this year, we wanted to provide a short update on our ongoing integration efforts.

Our teams are working diligently to identify where opportunities and overlap exist – and are making progress on a comprehensive go-to-market strategy. We’re taking a methodical and coordinated approach to ensure a seamless experience for our agents and customers as we organize our collective structure.

Our complementary geographic footprint will enable us to provide industry-leading claims and loss control services to our combined policyholder base – and we’re confident this integration will ensure even greater success for our integrated organization, valued agent partners and collective customers.

Stay tuned for more information – and thank you for your continued partnership and support!
