Tell us about Mid-Continent Group Mid-Continent Group believes that specialized expertise creates value for our agents and insureds . We work hard to develop expertly-crafted insurance solutions for well-run businesses that have potential for severe claims . Our agents tell us coverage for these businesses is often difficult to place with a strong insurer . Most insurers have a limited appetite for tougher risks presented by smaller accounts . Our specialty focus enables us to develop solutions to address the unique needs of these businesses , which are often underserved by the insurance industry . In order to provide insightful solutions and market stability , we have limited our product focus to General Liability , Umbrella , Commercial Auto and Inland Marine . Mid-Continent Group prefers to address unique customer needs in these product lines rather than taking a generalist approach . This specialized expertise allows us to work with agents to develop successful specialty niche programs , as well as underwrite individual risks in underserved markets .
