Welcome from Our CEO


Hello, I’m James Shay, President & CEO of American Contractors Insurance Group, or simply stated, ACIG.

First, I want to thank you for taking your time to consider joining the ACIG program. I know that once you’ve considered all the benefits of our program and are accepted by our current contractors, joining will be one of the best risk management decisions you’ll ever make for your firm. That’s because we provide the most comprehensive package of insurance products and services available to the construction industry today.

We built our business serving only the construction industry, and are uniquely positioned to help you handle one of your more volatile, but ultimately controllable, costs of doing business - your insurance program.

As a group of contractors, we assume the first seven million dollars of risk for workers compensation, up to eight million for general liability and five million for auto liability exposures. This represents approximately 99% of our premiums, which allows us to truly control our destiny.

And remember, you won’t be just another client to us but one of the owners, which means you will experience a level of service you cannot find elsewhere in the insurance industry. Becoming a Member of ACIG means that your management team has direct access to a world class group of risk management professionals, all of whom are committed to continually minimizing your cost of insurance.

To help you learn more about the unique value of the ACIG program, feel free to tour our website, or better yet, give us a call at our corporate offices.

I look forward to meeting with you to discuss your needs and demonstrating firsthand why the construction industry has long proclaimed the many benefits of being an active participant/shareholder in American Contractors Insurance Group. Collective participation in managing your insurance needs distinguishes ACIG from every other insurance company.

Welcome to our website. May this internet window to ACIG be your first step toward bringing us together and helping you control your insurance program.

Sincerely,

James Shay

President & CEO
