ADDING MULTIMEDIA Keystone Agency Investors Announces Rebrand and Name Change to Keystone Agency Partners

Rebranding initiative more closely aligns Keystone Agency Partners’ brand with its mission

HARRISBURG, Pa.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Keystone Agency Investors, a fast-growing independent insurance agency partnership platform, today announced it is changing its name to Keystone Agency Partners. The new brand represents the strong strategic, operational, and financial support the company provides to platform agencies, which is balanced by preserving independence and reigniting the entrepreneurial nature within insurance agency partners.

The name change and rebranding more closely aligns with the company’s mission of “connected autonomy” and is indicative of how partner agencies can maintain a portion of retained ownership, their own brand and business objectives, but with the added strategic support, capital investment and consultative resources provided by Keystone Agency Partners.

“Our new name better reflects who we are – true partners, collaborating with and providing resources to our agencies and we wanted our name to speak to the deep relationship we build with these agencies to support their growth,” said Jeff Turner, Chief Executive Officer of Keystone Agency Partners. “We are so much more than just a financial partner. The value add we bring is collaboration – from the due diligence process to long after close. Once our partners come onboard, we strategically realign their growth plans to amplify their strengths and help them better leverage technology to modernize their operations allowing them to focus on delivering value to their customers.”

“The rebranding to Keystone Agency Partners speaks to the importance of the company’s collaborative partnership approach and focuses on providing our insurance agency partners with an unparalleled support offering,” said Matt Popoli, Chairman of Keystone Agency Partners’ Board of Directors and a Managing Director of Bain Capital Insurance. “We are excited to continue to identify and capitalize on growth and expansion opportunities while strengthening our commitment and value proposition to partner agencies.”
