Carrier appetite summary
Indiana Farmers’ current official public-facing guidance is marketing/appetite-oriented rather than a detailed producer underwriting manual. Verified business appetite indicates focus on small to mid-sized business risks written through independent agents, with highlighted target segments including retail, restaurants and bakeries, food manufacturing, contractors, condo associations, service businesses, offices, and light manufacturing/industrial processing. Commercial property is offered within BOP and Commercial Package Policy formats; BOP is positioned for smaller accounts and CPP for larger businesses with broader or more customized risks. Workers Compensation is available as a separate policy and is specifically emphasized for employers, with underwriting sensitivity implied around industry, employee count, work performed, payroll, and loss history. Commercial Umbrella is available excess of primary liability lines including General Liability, Commercial Auto, Employers Liability under Workers Compensation, and Liquor Liability, with published limits from $1 million to $10 million. Geographic footprint verified from the carrier site is Indiana, Illinois, Ohio, and Kentucky. Public materials do not provide a detailed declined-class list, hard prohibitions, or submission checklist; no official public appetite PDF or producer-only underwriting guide could be verified on the carrier’s own site. Operationally, brokers should treat the posted industry list as preferred classes, expect agent-mediated placement through appointed independent agents, and be prepared to submit complete class-of-business detail, payroll/operations information for workers comp, and underlying liability structure for umbrella. Quote requests are directed through local independent agents rather than direct online submission. For producer relations, the carrier actively recruits agents and emphasizes direct access to staff, open communication, and agency compensation/contingency programs, which is notable for distribution partners but not a substitute for formal underwriting rules. Home remains an offered personal line on the website, but no separate public underwriting appetite details were verified for homeowner eligibility, restrictions, or catastrophe/geographic limitations.
