Premium Remittances & Year-End Closing

Welcome to YEAR-END.  We need your assistance with Premium Remittances to The Fund.  We anticipate volumes in December could exceed our physical ability to process.  To ensure processing of your premium remittances and consideration for the 2021 annual rankings, you should remit your transactions as soon as possible.  If you utilize one of our software solutions – DoubleTime, ePolicyManager (new ACH policy payment) or E-ClosingDT – and are interested in learning how to remit your policies electronically, reach out to your Business Development Advisor.  Please know we are harnessing every available resource here at The Fund to help with this effort!  12/02/2021
