How much time does it take you to process the information you receive for an excess & surplus (E&S) lines client? The E&S Joint Working Group is bringing awareness to the industry that if today’s systems aren’t based on industry standards, the industry is missing the opportunity to streamline its workflows, connect to a number of industry partners, and ultimately reduce its costs.

Formed in 2008, the E&S Joint Working Group (ESJWG) is an alliance of carriers, agents and vendors working with the American Association of Managing General Agents (AAMGA), ACORD, Agents Council for Technology (ACT) of the Independent Agents & Brokers of America, and the National Association of Professional Surplus Lines Offices (NAPSLO). ESJWG’s mission is to improve the efficiencies for retail agents, general agents, wholesale brokers and carriers by promoting the use of ACORD standards, best-practice workflows and the electronic exchange of data among each of the business partners. The group comprises retail agent/general agent, carrier and Lloyd’s subgroups.
