At Hudson Bailey Insurance Services, our mission is to deliver proprietary insurance solutions that protect diverse risks and assets — through innovative tools like HexCat disaggregation algorithms and SuperPerils policy form design, strategic distribution partnerships, and unwavering commitment to innovation — empowering brokers, carriers, and reinsurers to address unique and emerging challenges with confidence and to eliminate placement hassles that drive costs.
Hudson Bailey Insurance was founded with a clear vision: to simplify and elevate specialty insurance through innovative, tailored
solutions. We are building on a strong foundation to address complex and non-standard risks with precision and flexibility.
The principals behind Hudson Bailey are seasoned leaders from large, established insurance agencies, where they gained extensive
experience in high-volume placements, risk management, and program development. This real-world expertise from major agency environments
allows us to bridge traditional markets with modern, customized approaches — delivering unmatched insight for brokers, carriers, and reinsurers
from day one.
At our core, we leverage cutting-edge tools like HexCat's latest disaggregation technology to craft proprietary policy forms that tackle
unique risks efficiently and accurately. This data-driven methodology enables us to provide coverage that traditional markets often overlook,
helping our partners place business confidently and achieve optimal results.
Our leadership team brings decades of combined industry expertise and a shared dedication to excellence:
Randy Crane, President and CEO, steers our strategic direction with a focus on innovation and partnership.
Kenny Urbania and Daniel W. Crandall, esteemed Board Members, offer invaluable governance and perspective.
Key team members Nicole Crane, Abigail Brooks, and Haley Steele drive operations, underwriting, and partner success with
professionalism and commitment.
We proudly collaborate with premier partners like Program Partners Inc. and The AC Premier Network, whose strengths amplify our
ability to deliver advanced programs.
Looking ahead, Hudson Bailey is poised for growth with the upcoming launch of specialized programs for non-chain Tire Dealers and
Party Rental businesses later in 2026. These expansions underscore our commitment to identifying emerging risks and providing proactive,
forward-thinking solutions.
Whether you're a broker seeking reliable markets, a carrier pursuing profitable opportunities, or a reinsurer prioritizing stability —
Hudson Bailey Insurance is your dedicated partner in exceptional protection. We deliver with speed, precision, and integrity.
The AC was found in May 2019 following the release of exclusive agencies by Nationwide Insurance Company. The released agencies required a new operational platform to continue writing business and The AC stepped in to fill that need providing carrier access, technology systems, consulting, education and training.
Since its founding, The AC has grown into a national powerhouse. According to Insurance Journal, The AC ranked as the 5th largest agency in the U.S. by total revenues at $547.7 million (including commissions and fees) across their 4,000 member agencies. Collectively, they produce over $3 billion in written premium (admitted and non-admitted) through leading insurers and wholesalers. By leveraging economies of scale, each agency can utilize The AC's size to access more favorable terms in the marketplace than they would be able to independently.
As an added benefit, The AC provides its members with first-in-class-technology and systems to run their business. The AC knows each individual agency's time is spent most productively when they are in the field producing business. Because of this, The AC licenses tools including CRM system, marketing, rating and management systems available for their members. Additionally, each agency member can access banking, staffing, and HR support offered by The AC.
