Taking Chances That Pay Off: Sterling Risk Advisors Celebrates Decade of Strong Growth

ATLANTA - June 3, 2013 - PRLog -- Sterling Risk Advisors, an Atlanta-based risk management and insurance brokerage firm, marked its 10th anniversary this month.  Since the firm’s founding in 2003, it has grown from 13 employees to more than 50, with accompanying revenue growth of more than 400 percent.  The firm expects to double in size over the next five years.

“Sterling has seen strong growth for almost all of our ten years,” says Sterling principal Doug Rieder. “We have continued to focus on creating strong client partnerships and adding superior staff to serve them.  When you do that, revenues and positive growth follow naturally.”

Sterling has built a strong Risk Management/Insurance practice in a number of areas including:

·       Medical / Healthcare

·       Employee Benefits

·       Construction

·       Surety

·       Transportation and logistics

·       Manufacturing

·       Real estate (residential and commercial)

Over the next few years, the firm expects to continue to see strong growth from construction and employee benefits practice areas.  In addition, Sterling is currently counseling many clients in the area of benefits and wellness as companies struggle to understand the nation’s changing health care laws.

“Many companies are going through a challenging transition right now as they struggle to understand how the new Affordable Healthcare Act will affect how they handle their employee benefits,” said Garry Hill, a principal at Sterling Risk Advisors who specializes in employee benefits.  “There are uncertainties surrounding whether the law will remain in effect and what it will cost to abide by the changes.”

Sterling’s principals expect to remain independently-owned and Georgia focused, but with resources and skills to handle business anywhere in the country and worldwide.
