CAA Grows to Texas Mutual's Largest Agent

AUSTIN, Texas, March 26, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Today Combined Agents of America, LLC (CAA) announced that CAA is the largest agent for Texas Mutual Insurance Company in 2013. CAA grew its book of business with Texas Mutual from more than $51.4 Million in 2012 to more than $60 Million in 2013. That means a 16.8% increase in written premium. With 52 members based in Texas, Oklahoma and Kansas, CAA is a MGA committed to strengthening the independent insurance agency system through profitable growth and exceptional service for its member agencies. 

"This year we plan to continue to meet and grow our commitments with Texas Mutual, as their largest agent.  Importantly, CAA is also recognized as one of their most profitable agency partners, meaning we have kept our loss history to well below our counterparts in the industry," says Mike Schneider, president of Cravens Warren Insurance Agency in Houston, Texas, and the CAA Liaison for Texas Mutual. "Our commitment to risk management is paramount in this achievement.  We are thrilled to continue to build this beneficial relationship in 2014 with Texas' largest insurer of Workers Compensation."

Mike was on hand to be recognized in early March for this achievement.    

"Texas Mutual is proud of the relationship we have with Combined Agents of America," said Ken Lauber, vice president of business development at Texas Mutual. "CAA has been a valued partner of ours for years, and our shared values and commitment to risk management have resulted in significant success for both the agency and Texas Mutual."
