Who Are We?
SAN Group (Satellite Brokerage Network) is dedicated
to the creation, retention and growth of the local
Independent Brokerage. SAN is also the largest network
of independent insurance brokerages in the Northeast!
Since 1983, SAN Group has offered growth opportunities
to brokerages wishing to remain independent while being
able to compete with other forms of insurance distribution.
SAN Group has more than 170 members with a combined
premium exceeding $205 million.
SAN Group was developed in 1983 in response to the
changes in the Independent Brokerage System. At the time
many local brokerages were finding that it was impossible
to meet volume requirements, keep markets and survive.
The local Independent broker can now remain independent,
keep existing markets while gaining new ones, and
generate additional income from overrides and profit
sharing with no minimum premium requirement. All without
having to sell, merge or cluster.
SAN Group is a member of SIAA (Strategic Independent
Brokers Alliance), which was formed in 1995. SIAA is
the international organization by which the SAN Group
concept is replicated throughout the United States
and Canada.

also in effect.

What Type Of Brokerage Do We Look For?
SAN Group is seeking limited quality membership in
2004. We have no absolute brokerage profile because our
membership is comprised of a wide range of brokerages.
The common thread, however, is that SAN Members want
to grow and remain independent.
If that describes you then SAN will help you meet
your objectives. Many of our members are smaller brokerages
in need of markets. Additionally, direct writers,
life and financial service brokerages and producers
without a vesting in their book have all found SAN
Group membership beneficial.
Contact us today to see what membership in the Northeast's
largest network of independent brokerages can do for
you!
