In addition to our internal staff of benefits professionals, WGA has developed a
cohesive and highly effective network of Global Partners, including correspondent
brokers and consultants around the world. The network consists of coordinated partners within the Worldwide Broker Network (WBN).
The Worldwide Broker Network is the world's largest organization of privately held
insurance brokers. Partner firms are represented in Europe, North America, South
and Central America, Africa, the Far East and Australia. Founded in 1989 as the
Independent Broker Network, WBN has evolved into an integrated worldwide insurance
services network. Based in London, the Worldwide Broker Network comprises over 4,000
employees and has representation in more than 40 countries. On the basis of revenues,
the network partners as a group would comprise the 3rd largest insurance broker
in the world.
WGA is constantly expanding the carefully selected group of brokers and consultants
that we have worked with over the years in various countries where our customers
have employees. The firms and individuals have been selected based on their ability
to provide the highest quality of services and their ability to understand the unique
needs of the high technology & life sciences industries.
Our strong international network allows WGA to work with our clients to ensure that
the most appropriate local representation is utilized. We also have the flexibility
to work with existing brokers or carriers, so as not to disrupt relationships that
are already working well for our clients.
