The Risk & Insurance® Power Broker® Awards are an annual selection of the most effective and influential commercial insurance brokers. The Power Broker® designation is based on nominations provided by brokers and risk managers, and is judged based on the quality of the application and on references by risk managers in each industry sector. Hundreds of risk managers and risk executives are interviewed in the process of identifying and soliciting, evaluating and judging the nominees. The winners, chosen based on their creativity in solving risk-related problems during the previous year, their demonstrated industry knowledge and their high level of client services, are selected from hundreds of nominees.
