      OUR PLATFORM<\/span><\/h4>\n

      MTPA Insurance Services ensures that our<\/span> interests are aligned with the insurance providers and their reinsurers to win the confidence of the insurers that provide us with underwriting capacity. It is increasingly important that our agency management systems are state-of-the-art and have the most accurate data flowing freely in real-time.<\/p>\n

      We used the latest agency management systems to make the application, underwriting information, policy issuance, billing, and record-keeping easy for all parties. This saves everyone time and money and gets the specialized products into your clients\u2019 hands much faster.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”slideInUp”][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

      HOW WE DO BUSINESS<\/span><\/h3>\n

      At MTPA Insurance,<\/strong><\/span> we do things the right way. Our authorization is contractually managed through our agency agreement with our insurance providers. In accordance with the agreement in place, we work in the interests of the respective insurance company(ies) on areas of risk evaluation, underwriting, and customer satisfaction. In addition, each insurance quote, issued policy, and claim will carry the legal name of the insurance company that bears the risk for a given policy.<\/p>\n

      \u00a0MTPA Insurance Services<\/strong><\/span> has agreements with few leading insurance providers in the Philippines, who benefit by accessing our market reach, underwriting, and claims expertise in the products and\/or territories in which we operate. This local expertise and\/or representation is typically not available to the providers we represent and would be more expensive for our providers to develop the \u201cin-house\u201d resources, set up offices, or branch operations needed to deliver these solutions for the products we offer and\/or in the territories we operate.<\/p>\n

      We perform the above services on behalf of these insurance providers and are remunerated by them through commission to provide specialized insurance services to independent insurance agents nationwide.<\/p>\n

      We can work through your personnel or staff, so we are invisible to your clients, or work directly with your clients to save you additional time. Once the necessary underwriting information is provided and the approval is secured, the policy is prepared and forwarded to you or your client, normally within 24-48 hours. You will also be able to view copies of the bonds for all your clients online.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column css_animation=”slideInLeft”]
