(PRWEB) November 20, 2008 -- Assurex Global, the world's largest network of independent insurance and risk management brokers, today announced a strategic partnership with ReSource Pro, the New York City-based leader in remote staffing and insurance outsourcing services.

Under the two-year agreement, Assurex Global will recommend ReSource Pro to those Partners evaluating their back office operations for ways to improve operational efficiency and performance. In return, ReSource Pro will share with Assurex Global Partners proprietary tools developed internally to assist them in streamlining their back office operations so that their employees can focus on production and service, performance tracking and quality control.

Assurex Global actively engages in identifying best-in-class products and services for its Partners. The organization's 50-plus year history is built upon the belief that the best independent brokers are entrepreneurial, innovative, principled, loyal and focused on doing what's right for the client. Given ReSource Pro's history of growth, innovation and leadership, this strategic partnership is a natural fit, and comes at a time when agencies challenged by the soft market are looking for new ways to improve operating performance.

"We're looking forward to expanding our client service opportunities with the help of ReSource Pro. They've created a program which is both flexible and reliable -- it should be a seamless transition for Assurex Global Partners interested in pursuing new options for back room operations," said Jim Hackbarth, Assurex Global President and CEO.

"We're delighted to be selected by Assurex Global. Given their role as industry leaders, we feel this partnership is recognition of the hard work and dedication we have put into building a best-in-class service," commented Dan Epstein, CEO of ReSource Pro, LLC.
