Working with Shepherd
Upon receiving this new business opportunity as part of a captive program, we quickly responded with our initial appetite within one business day. Working closely with the broker, we were committed to meeting the target timeline and were able to provide our formal proposal within just two business days.

Why We Won
The opportunity to work on this account came to Shepherd as a result of our prior successful partnership with the broker, where we were able to showcase our speed and high level of service. When the broker needed a quick turnaround on this opportunity, they turned to us with confidence. We were able to secure our placement in the tower due to our responsiveness, clear and consistent communication, and ability to meet the target pricing and terms.
