Get to Know ... Kevin Hord, CIC, CPCU, ACLS, MBA

IA&B Insurance Agency Senior Director

Years with IA&B:

I’ve been with IA&B for a little over nine years. Previously, I worked on the carrier side for 13 years in claims, underwriting, and territory management.

Role at IA&B:

I manage the association’s agency, which consists of me and three other licensed insurance professionals. We offer agents a one-stop shop for all of their professional liability needs, including E&O, EPLI, Cyber, D&O, and Excess E&O/ Agents’ Umbrella. We also administer the RLI Personal Umbrella and Home Business BOP programs.

In addition to management, I service an assigned book of business consisting of some of our larger insureds and group E&O programs for several agency networks. Lastly, I establish and foster positive working relationships with our carrier partners to support our members’ insurance needs.

Best part of your job:

Interaction with our policyholders. Assisting our members in protecting their agency’s financial well-being can be quite rewarding. Not to mention the personal relationships you build over the course of handling their business.

Favorite sports team:

Growing up in Maryland, I always rooted for the Orioles, Terps, or Ravens, but my absolute favorite is the Washington Capitals.

Hidden talents:

I’ve played guitar since 7 th grade and minored in Classical Guitar in my college days. Today I mostly play modern fingerstyle.
