At-Bay vs RiskCube Tech E&O Insurance

At-Bay places Tech E&O insurance through its disclosed producer, At-Bay Insurance Services LLC, which is licensed as an insurance producer in all 50 states. At-Bay says eligible new excess-and-surplus (E&S) Tech E&O business has been written on its own carrier paper, At-Bay Specialty Insurance Company, since August 2023. ^4,5Company-reported. Producer role from the current license page; carrier role from a 2023 transition announcement covering Cyber and Tech E&O together, not confirmed for every current quote.

Tech E&O product page checked today names no insurer; the carrier-transition release is dated August 2023 and does not cover every current state or account.

RiskCube's disclosures say it is not an insurance carrier and that its insurance products, including Tech E&O, are underwritten and issued by third-party carriers it does not name; the Tech E&O page itself does not identify an issuing insurer. ^9,10Company-reported.
