HOW DID THE BGI AGENCY NETWORK CONCEPT ORIGINATE?
The concept began in 1982 with Satellite Agency Network (SAN) of New England in response to changes in the Independent Agency system. At the time, many local agencies were finding that it was impossible to meet volume requirements, keep markets and survive. SAN allowed the local independent agent to remain independent, keep existing markets while gaining new ones, generate additional income and receive profit sharing without having to sell, merge or cluster. SIAA and BGI Agency Network are building on SAN’s success.
