BXS INSURANCE B
XS Insurance’s roots extend back to 1882, starting along the banks of the Mississippi River in Baton Rouge. Today, as a subsidiary of BancorpSouth Bank, which has eclipsed $20 billion in assets and recently announced the acquisition of Cadence Bank, BXS Insurance is part of the Worldwide Broker Network and has 31 offices in eight states that serve clients across the U.S. and outside of its borders. Building its footprint gradually, BXS Insurance has grown exclusively via the acquisition of carefully chosen legacy agencies. Such was the case when Waguespack & Associates joined BXS Insurance in 2018. Because its employees have such strong ties to the communities that it serves, BXS Insurance invests considerably in the towns, cities, and states it is a part of through community service and financial education. Every year, BXS Insurance team members volunteer their time to various charitable causes, community events, and also ensure their fellow employees and others are taken care of in times of crisis. Such was the case in August 2016 during the Louisiana floods, and last year, when Hurricanes Laura and Delta greatly affected Southwest Louisiana. Partnering with leading businesses and its bank counterparts, BXS Insurance works to help provide the tools and resources necessary to encourage organizations and individuals to obtain proper insurance coverage, regardless of their needs, and promotes good financial habits. The pairing of the bank and BXS Insurance, the nation’s fourth-largest bank-owned broker in the U.S., assists organizations of all sizes in obtaining what they need to start, run, and succeed in whatever their chosen endeavor may be to positively impact local economies.
