76% of Agents Are Missing Opportunities—Here’s How to Avoid It

Written by AFR Services | Mon, Apr 14, 2025

How much business have you lost because you couldn’t find a market to take on the risk?

If you’re like 76% of agents surveyed in the 2024 Agency-Carrier Connectivity Trends Report, you’re not alone. According to the report, more than three-quarters of agents missed out on business opportunities simply because they couldn’t access a market to quote the risk. That number is up 3% from last year—clearly, something has to change.

Submitting quotes individually to multiple markets is time-consuming and inefficient—and it could cost you access to a broader network of appetites. That’s where AFR Insurance Services comes in.

As a trusted wholesale partner, AFR eliminates the manual work. Agents submit just one simple form, and AFR shops multiple private markets, including Lloyd's of London, along with the NFIP—delivering a range of options that align with your client’s needs. With a growing network of carrier partners, AFR is equipped to find the right fit for any level of risk—typically with quote turnaround in one business day.
