What is IIANM Employee Benefits Division and How Can We Help You?

Chartered in 1934, IIANM is one of the oldest trade associations in the state. Approximately 175 agencies, branches, and subsidiaries - operated by over 2,000 agents, brokers and their employees - make IIANM the largest insurance trade association in New Mexico.

Typically, IIANM has been predominately a property & casualty focused association. However, over the last 20 years, our agency members have expanded to include all lines of business. We saw a need to support the employee benefits personnel of these agencies and supply them with resources to help them compete against direct writers and to provide necessary educational resources.

Join IIANM Employee Benefits Division today and let us help you grow your agency.

Individual Producer:
$250/year
Insurance Agency (2 licensed employees):

Insurance Agency (2+ licensed employees):
base rate: $500/year (includes first 2 licensed employees) + $100 per each additional licensed employee to a maximum of $2500/year

What are IIANM Employee Benefit Division's core functions?

Will being a member of IIANM's Employee Benefits Division help me grow my business?

Yes. IIANM provides a great number of resources to our members.

Protection: We have partnered with NAPA and our E&O program gives members access to two exclusive markets to better protect their agency while providing them risk management resources. If you purchase your E&O through IIANM, there are additional benefits that are available to you, including savings and discounts on health, and wellness benefits, travel, and entertainment, as well as small business solutions.

Education: We also provide fun and creative educational opportunities for continuing education and pre-licensing courses and materials at a member discounted rate.

Advocacy: We employ a full-time lobbyist, J.D. Bullington, who works tirelessly on our member's behalf, on issues that affect our industry. Our national Government Affairs Action Committee, provides background on major insurance-related federal legislative issues. Every spring more than a thousand agents visit Capitol Hill offices to lobby members of the House, Senate and their staffs on issues that directly impact independent agents and consumers.

Support: We are also your liaison with the Office of the Superintendent. Expert help with navigation of licensing, compliance, and continuing education requirements. You can always give us a call to get answers.

Does being a member of IIANM EBD allow me any networking opportunities?

Absolutely! Throughout the year we put on many different events to encourage networking. Our capstone event is our Annual Convention that takes place in the fall. We also have our Annual Spring Education Seminar in March. This year we are introducing our Women in Insurance series where women throughout our industry gather after hours to hear inspirational women speak and empower each other. Throughout the year we have over 15 committee meetings that foster the collaboration of Independent Insurance Agents.
