INSURANCE SERVICES

From many great individuals USI has become one unique industry leader. USI began in 1994 with a single office of $6.5 million in revenue and 40 associates. Today, USI has over $2.5 billion in revenue with approximately 10,000 associates in nearly 200 offices across the country.

Corporate Overview

USI has served over 500,000 clients, meeting their property and casualty, employee benefit, personal risk and retirement needs nationwide. We have more than 150 years of consulting and brokerage experience through our acquired agencies, with local offices dating back in their communities as far as the late 1800s. USI provides industry leading national capabilities delivered through longstanding, passionate and committed local service teams. USI stands for Understand, Service and Innovate. At USI we work to Understand the specific needs of our clients, to provide an unparalleled local Service experience, and to Innovate with cutting edge solutions so our clients can continue to invest and grow.

The power of USI, and our ability to bring best-in-class solutions and services to our clients and our communities, is achieved through the collective knowledge and experience of our professionals coming together as ONE. What truly distinguishes USI as a premier insurance brokerage and consulting firm is the USI ONE Advantage®, a game-changing value proposition that delivers to clients a robust set of risk management and benefit solutions with bottom line financial impact. USI ONE® represents Omni, Network, Enterprise—the three key elements that set USI apart from the competition.

Through USI ONE®, we develop strategic, timely and effective risk management and benefit programs in terms that are easy to understand, and we demonstrate how the solutions can have positive economic impact.

In June 2020, USI restructured and rebranded our diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) program, forming our current “I’m With U” DEI program. I’m With U represents our collective, firmwide commitment to innovating and advancing our DEI efforts. I’m — for taking individual action. With — for bringing people together, not apart. U — for understanding, uncovering, uplifting, upholding, unblinking, and unifying.

Each day, our teams work to mitigate risks for a wide variety of clients, representing diverse demographics, backgrounds, and specialties. Through our I’m With U program, we aim to educate and equip our associates with the resources and tools to help them better understand and serve our clients, prospects, communities, and team members.

USI is committed to strengthening our corporate diversity metrics through: (1) education & training, (2) career progression & mentorship, (3) partnerships & networks, (4) service & philanthropy, and (5) diversity in hiring. Through our I’m With U program, USI is focused upon making an impact in three key areas: (1) our clients & prospective clients, (2) our people & culture, and (3) our communities.

OUR CLIENTS & PROSPECTIVE CLIENTS

USI is organized and focused through our proprietary OMNI platform to deploy our deep expertise matched to the diverse needs of our clients and prospective clients. All 10,000+ USI team members complete a foundational training and development curriculum to develop core relationship skillsets for best-serving clients.

OUR PEOPLE & CULTURE

USI is focused on expanding diversity in all its forms and having that reflected in our own team members. We have gathered informational baselines and are increasing diversity, including gender, ethnicity and age, across all roles in our organization. Diversity is included as a core focus in the areas of hiring, mentoring, promotion and development.

Our Communities

At USI, we perform hands-on service and strive to support and advance marginalized communities.

USI’s annual award-winning community service program, USI Gives Back, encourages local offices and employees to incorporate our I’m With U values when volunteering their time, talents, and resources to support underrepresented groups in the local communities we serve.
