Encova strengthens its digital capabilities by offering more solutions within Bold Penguin’s technology
Bold Penguin, a rapidly growing insurance technology provider, announces today that it has begun rolling out a digital commercial insurance solution in collaboration with Encova Insurance. Encova joins other regional and national key insurance companies to offer a quoting experience for business owners’ policies for its independent agents.
As the small business space across the United States continues to move to digital, the need for accurate, efficient access to commercial insurance has increased. Small businesses and insurance agents alike benefit from expanded digital quoting capabilities that are powered by Bold Penguin’s technology.
“Independent agents and businesses alike need a solution for quick, easy to use, accurate software when it comes to quoting small commercial opportunities. Encova has proven to be one of the more advanced organizations and we are happy to work together,” said Marc DeLeonibus, Co-founder of Bold Penguin. “Our partnership with Encova is the latest example of how large insurance companies are being nimble and meeting their agency force in a more digital way.”
Encova and Bold Penguin announced their partnership in 2018. Since then, the two organizations have been working closely on picking the right industries, products, and key agents to approach small commercial. The newly announced work streamlines the rate, quote and bind process and allows select Encova agencies to access their products.
