The RT Specialty team, retail agents and brokers, and specialty insurance markets have long recognized Oakbridge’s reputation as an outstanding organization whose brokers are widely regarded as among the very best nationwide in the executive and professional liability arena. By combining our teams in these segments, we will solidify our position as the preeminent executive and professional liability wholesaler in the minds of retail brokerage firms, their clients, and the specialty markets that underwrite this insurance.”
