Distinguished Executive Lines Launches New Primary Forms

NEW YORK — Distinguished Programs (“Distinguished”), a leading national insurance program manager, proudly announces new primary offerings within its Executive Lines business for Private and Non-Profit organizations. This development underscores Distinguished’s ongoing commitment to provide innovative and comprehensive management liability solutions exclusively to wholesale brokers.  

The new forms offer coverage for Directors & Officers Liability, Employment Practices Liability, and Fiduciary Liability, available on both a combined and standalone basis. Tailored for middle-market businesses, these products address risks with unique challenges, including those that are tough-to-place, with past claims, are facing financial challenges, or are involved in mergers, acquisitions, or restructuring transactions. Distinguished’s primary product is open in all states, can be a solution for any sized private or non-profit risk, and is customizable for most business classes including healthcare, technology, and education. These new primary forms complement Distinguished’s existing true follow-form excess product, which already delivers seamless excess protection for public, private, and non-profit organizations.  

“Our new primary forms are designed to provide solutions to our wholesale broker-partners that manage complex accounts, providing them with competitive options to meet their clients’ unique needs,” said Ryan Becker, President of Distinguished’s Executive Lines business. “By focusing on flexibility, open-mindedness, and problem-solving, we are able to provide these innovative solutions to insure challenging risks, and with the white-glove service our partners expect from us.” 

Distinguished’s Executive Lines business operates exclusively within the wholesale channel, offering brokers access to a team of experienced, dependable, and empowered underwriters. These underwriters leverage an E&S mindset to craft customized solutions for complex risks, ensuring each submission is treated with precision and care.

Distinguished Executive Lines is supported by Covington Specialty Insurance Company, a subsidiary of RSUI Group, Inc. with an A++ (Superior) XIV rating from AM Best.
