Distinguished Programs and Wright Flood Team Up to Offer Flood Coverage for Community Associations

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Distinguished Programs ("Distinguished"), a national insurance program administrator and MGA, today announced a new collaboration with Wright Flood to provide Flood insurance for its Community Associations program.

Distinguished’s partnership with Wright Flood adds another layer of protection to its Community Associations program, which includes Package, Directors & Officers, Crime, Umbrella and Cyber products. Wright Flood’s expertise in the Flood insurance market enhances the value brokers can deliver to their clients. This collaboration strengthens Distinguished’s position as a onestop shop for community associations coverage.

“Community associations face unique risks and floods are one of them,” said Barbara Bartson, president of Distinguished’s Community Associations program. “With this integration, brokers can easily add Flood coverage through Wright Flood after submitting an eligible Community Associations application. This innovation simplifies the process and delivers a more complete solution for their clients.”

Flood insurance is all we do, and collaborating with Distinguished allows us to extend that knowledge to an even larger network of brokers,” said G. Michael Sloane, Wright Flood’s executive vice president and chief marketing officer. “Where it can rain, it can flood. Whether a property is inside or outside of a high-risk flood area, we encourage property owners to consider purchasing Flood insurance for the protection and peace of mind it brings. Together, we’re providing a trusted solution for community associations across the country.”
