What is Security America Risk Retention Group?

The program was formed by the ESA specifically to offer custom designs, professional errors & omissions and general liability insurance for its member companies.

What is a Risk Retention Group (RRG)?

An RRG is an insurance program owned by its policyholder members. Because RRGs are formed under special federal legislation, they enjoy flexibility of rates and coverage. As an owner and insured of Security America (RRG), you are provided shares in the company in accordance with the amount you pay into the program. Those shares may increase in value. Alternatively, if Security America does not do well, those shares may lose their value. In any event, the maximum loss to any shareholder is the amount paid for the shares. Shares are nonassessable.

I am an installing dealer/integrator, why do I need professional errors & omissions and general liability insurance?

In some states professional errors & omissions and general liability insurance is required by law to meet licensing requirements. And even when it’s not a state requirement, you or an employee could make one mistake that could lead to a lawsuit by a customer, an alarm monitoring company, or a contractor for which you are doing an installation. One such lawsuit could be financially devastating if you are uninsured and found to be at fault.
