ASM’s Acadia insurance program pays dividends!
Boston, MA 2016 marks the 15th year of ASM’s group insurance program with Acadia Insurance, which offers all lines of coverage at competitive rates to qualified member companies. One of the most popular features of the Program is the dividend plan, which makes it possible for members to receive dividends or “refunds” in years that have a good safety record. In February Acadia declared a dividend of nearly a half-million dollars for the 2013 year, which was shared by 77 member-insureds who contributed to the good performance of the program in 2013. Since the inception of the program, Acadia has returned over $4.5 million to participating members – in amounts that more than cover the cost of dues!
The program is open to all qualified members, and is available through the sponsoring broker, TGA Cross Insurance, or through any authorized Acadia agent. Contact ASM for more information on membership and eligibility for this program, as well as other cost-saving benefits for members of ASM!
