If you are considering expanding operations outside of the United States, how are you planning on insuring it? If you already have operations in another country, are you able to handle the day to day administration of the insurance program in the same manner you handle your domestic? If not, you may want to ask your agent if they have access to an “owned network” of like minded agencies across the globe that can help you centralize your insurance program. Kapnick is a proud member of Assurex Global and can deliver this if needed.
