MEMBER Q&A with BUSINESS INSURERS OF THE CAROLINAS: Did you know that US-based IBPSA Members have access to a wide range of business insurance policies through Business Insurers of the Carolinas? If you check the Resources tab of your InfoHub, you’ll find their most current application forms.

IBPSA CEO Carmen Rustenbeck will be having a live Zoom conversation with David Pearsall on November 17th at 1pm CT to discuss the different types of polices, and how you can best make sure that your business insurance needs are being met. Register here, or from your Member InfoHub. David is looking forward to answering your questions! If you have questions regarding insurance that you would like David to address, please submit those to natalie@ibpsa.com.
