| Commercial Automobile
product is a specialty product distributed through a markedly different channel. This product is targeted to wholesale brokers specializing in delegating Commercial Auto. We seek well-qualified wholesale brokers with primary commercial auto underwriting authority from acceptable primary markets. General Star qualifies each auto “pen” held by the delegated auto wholesaler broker. The wholesale broker receives a General Star appointment to distribute the Excess Commercial Automobile product only; it is not a supplement to other Contract Division Property and Casualty products.
