Gridiron Insurance Underwriters has agreed to offer RLI's excess liability binding authority insurance through Gridiron's dedicated online wholesale excess liability portal.

In a statement, RLI explained that the platform allows appointed producers to quote, bind, and issue excess liability policies designed for small commercial businesses in real time. Its liability coverage is available to 400 business classes and can be attached over general liability, liquor, auto, and employers liability.

Policies will be underwritten by Mt. Hawley Insurance, a surplus lines subsidiary of RLI Insurance Company.

"This partnership will give customers the same great coverage and service they have come to expect from RLI with the added benefit of Gridiron's technology," said Dennis Drees, RLI vice president for casualty brokerage.

Coverage is available on a non-admitted basis in all states, except New York.
