AmeriLife Group has taken over Texas-based Insurance 360 to expand its capabilities in term life insurance.
The acquired firm provides term life, universal life, disability income, long-term care, and survivorship insurance policies from major insurance carriers.
It was founded in 1983 on direct mail marketing, advertising term life insurance products and services to physicians and attorneys throughout the country.
The company, after 25 years in direct mail marketing, started to service its policyholders and turned to client management services.
AmeriLife chairman and CEO Scott Perry said: “Under President Scott Harper’s direction, Insurance 360 has become one of the leading independent agencies in the country.
“With their many years of experience, Scott and his team will be an important addition to the AmeriLife family and we’re excited to bring them on board.”
