Equity Risk Partners Earns 'Power Broker' Designation

SAN FRANCISCO, March 3 /PRNewswire/ -- Equity Risk Partners (ERP), the only full-service insurance brokerage and consulting firm focused exclusively on the needs of the private equity industry, has been recognized as a "Power Broker" by Risk & Insurance Magazine. This annual distinction honors the most influential commercial insurance brokers in the industry for their creativity in solving clients' risk management issues, depth of industry knowledge, and superior client service.

Tony Marcon, Senior Managing Director, was selected as a winner in the Financial Institutions category. He was one of 144 brokers chosen for the award out of thousands of nominees. "The 'Power Broker' designation is reflective of the power of the ERP model," said Marcon. "Our firm has the resources, creativity, and people to allow me to give our private equity clients and their portfolio companies the responsive service they demand and deserve."

ERP was also recognized by Risk & Insurance as a "Breakthrough Firm" in 2009. The firm was noted for being a small broker who is at times nimbler and more entrepreneurial than many of its larger rivals, as well as for its responsiveness to the investment opportunities of its private equity clients. "ERP has continued to increase its product and service offerings, enhance the training of its staff on the nuances of private equity, and broaden its client service capabilities," says Michael Marcon, Founder and CEO. "I believe we are very well-positioned for both the coming economic recovery, as well as the coming hard market."
