 What is underwriting?
 
 Insurance underwriters use analytical skills to review information from an applicant to evaluate the degree of risk involved in a business or operation to determine if the applicant should be approved for a policy. The underwriter then uses our technology and data to determine the coverages to provide and the premium to be charged for the risk. Our underwriting professionals utilize strong communication and customer service skills by asking questions and making decisions over the phone and via e-mail with our agents.

Manages pending workload to ensure agencies receive excellent service on quotes when needed.
 </li>
 <li>
 QUALITY CONTROL AND REVIEW: Performs quality control inspections of system bound policies, endorsements, and renewal policies. Reviews applications, agency correspondence, and other underwriting information received versus policy to reconcile any discrepancies or errors and to ensure accurate information is contained in policy. Reviews proper rating classification and coding of bound policies using combination of information available in application, loss control inspections, and telephone conversations with agents and brokers. Handles problems and takes appropriate action on unusual discrepancies. Initiates policy changes and takes underwriting actions as appropriate within underwriting authority including cancellation or non-renewal.
 </li>
 <li>
 THIRD PARTY DATA: Utilizes third party tools, data, and services to enable better underwriting decisions, improve accuracy of rating/exposure information, and produce better underwriting results.
