DeCotis is an independent Surplus Lines Wholesaler & MGA. We help agents with hard-to-place risks. Any wholesale broker can provide an agent with a quote.

Founded in 1992, DeCotis Specialty Insurance is an independently owned and operated surplus lines wholesaler headquartered in Providence, Rhode Island. We provide independent insurance agents with access to property and casualty commercial and personal products at competitive prices and terms in the surplus lines and specialty markets. However, agencies looking for exceptional underwriting knowledge and local expertise to help them make sure they have the right solutions for their insureds team up with DeCotis.

Your client lands a contract requiring $10M in liability limits, but the primary carrier caps coverage at $1M. You turn to other standard markets, but they refuse to write excess layers since they don't control the underlying program. Do you walk away from the account?

By partnering with DeCotis, you don't have to.

We work with agents to secure both supported and unsupported Excess and Umbrella Liability Insurance solutions for their clients, allowing you to place buffer layers and flexible attachment points over new ventures, businesses with poor loss history, and other challenging accounts.

Don't let rigid underlying guidelines stop you from closing complex commercial deals.
