Arden Insurance Services , a managing general agent (MGA) specializing in insurance for residential condominium associations, has partnered with Green Shield Risk Solutions , a Chicago-based catastrophe risk mitigation specialist, to address the escalating wildfire risk.

The collaboration supports Arden’s strategy of using advanced data and analytics to assess wildfire risks. It also enables Arden to offer unique risk mitigation strategies to brokers and clients seeking to improve structural resiliency.

“Our partnership with Arden represents a notable step forward in our mission to help protect communities from the devastating impact of wildfires. We’re excited that they have chosen our state-of-the-art wildfire analytics to supplement their best-in-class underwriting platform.” – Patrick Blandford, Green Shield’s Founder and CEO.

“Arden is excited to collaborate with Green Shield and incorporate their expert analytics into our underwriting process. We focused on taking a differentiated approach to wildfire risk since we first entered the California market in 2016. In 2023, we launched our Wildfire Exposed Product. Today, through our partnership with Green Shield, we can provide our clients with not only differentiated insurance protection, but also the knowledge and resources to prevent and mitigate their wildfire risk.” – Brian Cohen, Co-founder and CEO of Arden.

Cohen said that the key aspects that set Arden apart include the depth of the company’s underwriting knowledge, its niche focus on residential condominium associations, and its progressive approach to managing risk.
