Captive Agents VS Independent Agents

A captive insurance agency is a company that provides insurance coverage for its parent company or affiliated companies, while an independent insurance agency represents multiple insurance companies and can offer a variety of coverage options to its clients. One benefit of a captive insurance agency is that it can have more control over the design and pricing of its insurance products, as well as potentially retaining a larger portion of the premiums as profit. However, it may have limited options for coverage and may not be able to offer as broad a range of products as an independent agency.
On the other hand, an independent insurance agency has the ability to shop around and compare coverage options from multiple carriers, potentially finding the best fit for its clients. However, it may not have as much control over the pricing and terms of the policies it offers.

It is important for individuals and businesses to carefully consider their insurance needs and do their due diligence when choosing an insurance agency to work with, whether it is a captive or independent agency.

The Founder of Insurance With Purpose Agency nationwide

Derek Pierce, founder of Insurance With Purpose Agency, Inc., has been working in the insurance industry since 2003. He first started in the industry as a personal lines insurance agent, answering phones and doing data entry. After a year in this role, Derek was promoted to commercial lines, where he continued to work with businesses in a variety of industries.

During the early stages of his career, Derek spent two years working on Certificates of Insurance, learning about the significance of insured’s contractual obligations and how they affect insurance coverage. After over a decade of experience in retail insurance agencies, Derek decided to switch to the wholesale brokerage side of the business. He worked on an Excess & Surplus Lines Wholesale Brokerage Team, helping retail agents secure coverage for large premium clients in industries such as Energy, Environmental, Construction, and Manufacturing.

In 2017, Derek took on the role of lead producer for his own Wholesale Excess & Surplus Lines Commercial book of business. In 2021, he founded Insurance With Purpose Agency, Inc., a 100% independent insurance agency based in Navasota, Texas. Derek and his team of experienced insurance agents are dedicated to providing personalized service and expert guidance to businesses in a variety of commercial industries, including Energy, Environmental, Construction, and Manufacturing.
