Thank You For Making 2005
RISC's Best Year Ever

An announcement from Bill Staub

RISC, Inc. has just completed the most successful year in our company's history. This is the result of incredible teamwork with our staff, our markets, and our retail partners. I believe we have put together the finest group of employees who like their jobs, are good at what they do, and have set realistic goals to be one of the elite wholesale operations in the Southwest.

We have made both a procedural commitment and a substantial financial commitment to stay on the cutting edge of technology in order to give the best service available. Our recent partnership with a leading supplier of "paperless" software and services will allow most of our staff to perform their jobs as effectively from home as they can from the office.

We are extremely excited about what lies ahead for us in 2006 and hope that you too will want to join forces with us during these exciting times. Allow us the opportunity to help you achieve outstanding success as well.

Bill Staub, President of RISC, Inc.

RISC, Inc. – Construction Facility Taking Off

Dallas based wholesaler, RISC, Inc. announced that it’s recently formed sub-contractor’s Liability facility has been a huge success. The facility has been set up to write GL and Umbrella coverage for 14 specialty contractors in both the residential and commercial fields.

President of RISC, Bill Staub, states that although they are currently writing between $1.5 million to $2 million in new premium a month, that “we have just scratched the surface of this market.” “With our territory running from Louisiana north to Canada and west, the long range potential for this program is simply astounding” according to Mr. Staub.

Bob Leonhart and Darwin Lucas, Senior Vice President’s of the Programs Department for RISC agree. Mr. Leonhart states that “in addition to General Liability and Umbrella, we’ve expanded the program for 2005 to include Workers’ Compensation and Automobile coverage. These added lines make us more desirable to retail agencies and insured’s alike.”

Mr. Lucas, states “our ability to use an exposure basis of payroll for these classes of business has given our agents a more accurate way to base their premiums. We have seen receipts escalating due to the cost of goods increasing monthly, and our clients have all agreed that using a payroll basis of rating is more cost effective. As a result, these competitively priced programs continue to increase our market share in these classes.”

For further information on this program you can visit the Program section of this website or call 1-800-725-7472 and ask for either Mr. Lucas or Mr. Leonhart.
