Although a significant number of these agencies want to perpetuate internally,

they recognize the challenges that come with their smaller size, e.g., meeting

carrier volume requirements, attracting talented employees, raising capital for

necessary investments in systems and people, and being both a manager and

producer. As such many are merging together with agencies of similar size. If

no ideal merger partner can be found, they will opt to sell to a third party.
