The Independent Insurance Agents & Brokers of New York is the oldest and largest producer association in New York State. We represent approximately 3,600 independent business owners and principals of 1,800 independent insurance agency
locations in the State of New York, comprising more than 12,500 individuals who sell and service the personal and business insurance needs of consumers. Independent agents and brokers are very sensitive and alert to the problems of the consumer
because their entire business is based on dealing with the public daily in a personal client-professional relationship.
Insurance is a crucial component for the economic health of our state and therefore it is imperative that New York maintains a stable insurance climate. Our members are uniquely positioned as an integral part of their communities to assist on a broad
range of economic development, tax, insurance, and other business issues that impact the consumers in New York. As we face new challenges our members have pledged themselves to work even more aggressively with government and other
industries to address the many crucial issues which confront us. We look forward to a cooperative effort with our legislators and regulators during the coming year.
