SWZ Insurance and Risk Management was founded by Ami Curci in 2012, after a lengthy career as an analyst for one of the largest insurance companies in the world. Jon D. Tanner joined the firm in 2014 after having spent the prior two years as a wholesale broker for RT Specialty (Westrope) in Kansas City, and Dallas. Prior to the two years spent as a wholesale broker, he had spent 18 years in the re
tail space as owner of a firm which focused on trucking/transportation, energy and hospitality accounts. He earned his law degree in 2003 and began to focus on risk management in a limited capacity. He sold his firm to Alliant Insurance Services in 2010, and served as a Senior Vice President for two years before exiting the retail world to learn the ins and outs of the wholesale world. Curci began placing business with Tanner during his tenure in the wholesale world, and Tanner, impressed with the accounts which Curci was submitting to him, recognized the potential to build something unique in the industry. The two met and discussed the absence in the industry of a retail brokerage which could provide true risk management, safety & compliance, and legal services which are custom tailored to the needs of larger accounts which are subject to heavy regulatory oversight (both state and federal) and which have the potential for large, severe claims. SWZ Insurance and Risk Management Services was born out of this conversation, and has exceeded projections every year since its founding. Our territory covers our home state of Texas, as well as AZ, NM, OK, LA, GA, WI and FL. We are excited to continue building our company by targeting select companies in these states, and bringing insurance products and services to our clients which are unavailable from other retail insurance brokers.
