Carrier Access

Carrier access that works for you.

One relationship with Greenwood connects your agency to more than 35 carrier partners with strong non-admitted capabilities, select admitted options depending on the line and eligibility, and multiple solutions for difficult-to-place risks. Explore our markets →

Binding authority markets

Bind eligible everyday commercial risks quickly through Greenwood's delegated authority, with clear appetite and fast answers.

Wholesale brokerage markets

Access brokered markets for accounts that need more negotiation, structure, or capacity than a program alone can provide.

Specialty programs

Purpose-built programs for niche classes give brokers a dedicated home for risks that standard markets often decline.

Strong non-admitted capabilities

Deep excess & surplus lines relationships help place the tougher risks that admitted carriers won't write.

Select admitted options

Admitted solutions are available depending on the line of business and eligibility, subject to underwriting.

Difficult-to-place solutions

Multiple markets under one roof mean brokers have more than one option for the accounts that keep getting declined.

Greenwood General underwriting and policy support team working with brokers

Broker FAQs

Questions brokers ask us most.

Straight answers on markets, appointments, technology, and how Greenwood helps you place business.

Why work with a wholesale MGA?

A wholesale MGA gives retail agents and brokers access to more markets through a single relationship. Greenwood provides binding authority markets, wholesale brokerage markets, and specialty programs, plus in-house underwriting — so you can place more risks, including harder-to-place accounts, without appointing every carrier individually.
