Independent Insurance Agents of Broward County, Inc. is a
nonprofit, voluntary, local trade association of independent
insurance agencies. We are affiliated with the Florida
Association of Independent Agents (FAIA) and the Independent
Insurance Agents of America (IIAA).
The
Association has been in existence since 1938, formed as a
means for education and the exchange of ideas for agents and
associate members. We continue to pursue these goals in order
to protect and support the American Agency System. There is a

presides over the board. Currently, we have 55 agency members
and over 40 associate members.

benefits of membership in the IIABC include continuing
education seminars, regular meetings, social functions; all
providing excellent opportunities to network with the premier
agents and associates of the insurance industry. In addition,
we produce a monthly newsletter, an annual member directory
and offer an employee referral service. An active public
relations program is in full force to promote a positive image
of the independent agent to the public. Public Relations
projects such as, scholarships, supporting charities,
sponsoring local youth sports, and establishing the InVest
