I am a competitor of Merchants Group- have been for 20+ years working for both large stock and regional mutuals in Upstate/Western NY. The past 5 years have been a boon to super-regionals such as National Grange, Peerless, Selective, Harleysville,Preferred Mutual and the company that I currently work for. Plenty of profitable business out there as the national stock carriers have off-loaded entire classes of business that they underpriced and misclassed. The super-regionals saw this as a growth opportunity, took advantage of relationships and grew profitably. Merchants missed this period entirely.

Merchant\’s brings back memories. I began my career with them in the late 70\’s. Underwriting Trainee under Bill Bowers in
Buffalo.
Anyone on the where abouts of JF Ryan?
Larry Thompson? Michael Gorman? Anyone?
I had this company but they are a loser company that has nothing great to offer. I see the ratings people think the same.
