UFCIC targets property and casualty insurance for small businesses that are managed in such a way that they deserve to qualify for, and enjoy, the additional advantages in security and coverage offered by an admitted product.

For those risks that necessitate the surplus market, our company uses our E&S carrier, Shield Indemnity, for risk placement.
