What Risk Management Really Means

Risk management is the discipline of identifying, controlling, and financing risk in a way that protects people, property, operations, and reputation.

At Republic, risk management is embedded into how we design insurance programs, advise clients, and respond when losses occur.

The goal isn’t eliminating risk—it’s making risk predictable, survivable, and manageable.

Our Risk Management Framework

Before the Loss - We use a practical, real-world approach to risk:

Identify – Operational, contractual, property, liability, and people-related risk
Evaluate – Frequency, severity, and financial impact
Control – Operational changes, safeguards, and best practices
Transfer – Insurance structured correctly
Monitor – Ongoing review as operations evolve

This framework helps reduce surprises, control long-term costs, and improve underwriting outcomes.

Claims Advocacy

Claims are where insurance is truly tested—and where most agencies disappear.

When a claim occurs, we stay actively involved to help protect outcomes, timelines, and future insurability.

Assistance with claim reporting and documentation
Communication with carriers and adjusters
Advocacy for coverage interpretation
Monitoring claim progress and responsiveness
Escalation when delays or disputes arise
Support through settlement and resolution

We don’t replace the carrier—we hold them accountable.

Delayed response or payment
Coverage disputes
Underpaid settlements
Negative loss history affecting renewals
