In 2017, NU forged an alliance with the National Association of Professional Insurance Agents (PIA) and Flaspöhler | NMG to conduct the inaugural Independent Agent Study — a research project designed to annually take the pulse of independent Property & Casualty insurance agents throughout the U.S. and provide revealing insight into the demographics, books of business and challenges they face, and reveal their most highly rated carrier partners.

Today, we look at the Top 10 commercial P&C carriers, as voted upon by our survey respondents.

The insurers that make up the 2018 list are similar to those featured in last year's list, with some movement throughout — but the carrier taking the top spot (and voted No. 1 by 35% of respondents) is the one that took the title last year (watch the video for the reveal).

Flaspöhler has long conducted its own larger annual study of agents (the Flaspöhler | NMG Producer Study) on behalf of key P&C carriers, which use the results to help them best meet agent needs. The data included in the study featured in NU and on PropertyCasualty360.com this month are extracted from Flaspöhler's larger research study (upward of 300 pages), which the firm makes available to rated P&C commercial lines carriers.

Stay tuned to PropertyCasualty360.com throughout the month as we share the findings of this in-depth study of America's independent agents.
