AESIS

AESIS Network Logo

IOA is part of a network of superior international agents that adhere to our same dedication to customer service. These international agents assist IOA with global insurance placements to guarantee that your policies comply with the laws of the country. Our connections include both property and casualty and employee benefits agents who are unsurpassed in their field.

Some of the benefits of local agents are:

  • Follows the direction of your IOA agent, so your trusted advocate at home can still support you abroad
  • Gives recommendations on coverages based on the country’s standards
  • Handles claims in the country of origin to ensure swift closures
  • In-depth knowledge of local laws and regulations
  • Offers optional risk management services for your local branches
  • Provide on-site safety training and recommendations

As a part of the network, IOA sends representatives to the annual AESIS conference. These meetings are the foundation of the strong relationships built between IOA and our international partners. One of the goals of this meeting is to workshop the problems that affect the international insurance community. Members share advice on what has worked for them in their international dealings, helping the organization to continue to be the best at what they do.

The value of IOA’s affiliation with this network is that we choose the broker that is the perfect fit for your company, even if they are not a network member. Most other large agencies are required to use the agents located in their global branches, regardless of whether or not they are the best agent for you. We have the flexibility to work outside of our network, so you always have the right agent on the job.
