Public Entity Insurance

Public entities play a pivotal role in how we live, work and conduct business. From law enforcement to county mayors, we can help protect your organization from the unique exposures, risks, and challenges within the public entity industry.

Protection for Public Entities 

SouthPoint Risk public entity customers include county governments with law enforcement as well as jails, highway departments, landfills, EMS departments, municipalities, and public utilities. 

Many years ago, we identified the need to be more than just a source of insurance to our public entity customers. Talk with a SouthPoint Risk agent about the coordination we provide among public entity risk managers, elected and appointed public officials, legal counsel, and the human resource assets of the insuring pools and insurance companies.  

SouthPoint Risk’s team brings to you: 

  • An understanding of Government Tort Liability. 
  • Long-standing familiarity with the insurance pools established to provide stable choices for the government. 
  • A history of utilizing the private sector insurance company options to round out public entity insurance programs. 

We deploy our experience to identify areas within governmental entities where coordination of communication where coordination of communication is the key to unlocking good risk management and sound fiscal oversight of insurance dollars.
