Brian Pozzi Market Quotations

Hurricanes have hit downstate New York, and hurricanes will hit downstate New York again. Our very high market share numbers therefore compelled us to take appropriate, measured actions that balance the best interests of customers, shareholders, agency owners, employees and the community at large.

We have all seen the devastation caused by the last two hurricane seasons. We have become aware of the predictions of future storm activity both in frequency and severity. It became clear that we had to take appropriate, measured steps to manage our high concentration of market share in the impacted counties.
