On May 24, 2017

Insuritas, the nation’s premier provider of turn-key insurance agencies for financial institutions announced that it has been hired by Fairport Savings Bank. The agency will provide a comprehensive suite of insurance products for the banking customers and the communities it serves.

Dana Gavenda, CEO of Fairport stated: “Launching our wholly owned Insurance Agency allows us to continue our commitment to providing our customers with all the financial products they need in a one stop shopping solution that focuses on price, convenience, and service. With 100% of our customers needing insurance every year, we will focus on insurance with the same passion and energy we have for deposit gathering and loan growth.  Partnering with Insuritas allows us to deliver a full suite of insurance products to our customers when they apply for a loan, get a renewal notice in the mail, or go online to pay a bill.” Gavenda concluded: “At Fairport Savings Bank, we believe you should love your bank.  Not just like it, but love it.  And we believe adding insurance to our product offerings will add to that commitment.

Jeff Chesky, President and CEO of Insuritas, noted: “Leadership at Fairport Savings Bank has recognized that providing a full suite of insurance products to their customers is a natural extension of their core business and leverages the powerful brand equity and trusted relationships they’ve created in the market.”   Chesky added, “Our deployment team will install our award winning E-InsuranceAISLE™, LoanINSURE® and SmartCART Technology℠ platforms, creating a virtual ‘Insurance Aisle’ inside the Bank that will provide a powerful lift in recurring, value added, non-cyclical fee income while helping more customers and small businesses save time and money on insurance.”
