What is Big "I" Markets

Big “I” Markets provides free online access to specialty/niche coverages, program business and hard-to-find markets access exclusively for IIABA members. Using proprietary IIABA technology and IIABA’s nationally licensed, wholly owned agency—IIAA Agency Administrative Services—IIABA members gain access to available coverage, terms and conditions, applications, a quote request platform and policy forms and electronic brochures are efficiently conveyed to and from IIABA member agents and product providers.

Making its debut nationwide in July 2002, Big “I” Markets’ participation has grown from under 300 sub-producing agencies to more than 5,300 sub-producing agencies representing more than 18,000 licensed sub-producers today. The sub-agency list grows by the hundred each month as product expansion and technology enhancements fill a need in our member’s everyday business transactions.

Products and Providers

Big “I” Markets is a product driven program. While we do business with a very strong and diverse company partner list, our relationship with the providers is product-specific. We do not encourage rate shopping and provide single market access for most products. Product availability is state specific but a summary of the products and carriers are listed below. Please login to www.bigimarkets.com to check availability in your state.

NEW! Access personal lines markets through the expanded Big "I" Eagle Agency. Visit www.independentagent.com/Eagle to learn more.
