NEW YORK, Dec. 11, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Roadzen Inc. (Nasdaq: RDZN) (“Roadzen” or the “Company”), a global leader in AI at the convergence of insurance and mobility, today announced that it has executed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) for a partnership with Cimarron Underwriters, LLC (“Cimarron”). Through this proposed partnership, Roadzen will leverage Cimarron’s nationwide Managing General Agent (MGA) licenses and infrastructure to expand the distribution of its insurance offerings across all 50 U.S. states.

Cimarron Underwriters, LLC (“Cimarron”), through its subsidiaries, Cimarron Insurance Company, Inc. and Cimarron Brokerage Company, LLC's nationwide U.S. insurance network, provides business owners and individuals with a comprehensive suite of insurance, risk management, and risk financing solutions. Its brokerage division operates as a general agency associated with its affiliate, Cimarron Insurance Company, Inc., offering services in all 50 states and serving as the exclusive access point for licensed insurance agents, brokers, and Program Managers seeking to offer Cimarron Insurance Company, Inc. products.

Roadzen’s business model is designed to deliver AI-driven offerings through two interconnected segments: Technology Solutions (Insurance as a Service/IaaS) and Risk Solutions (Brokerage). Under the terms of this proposed new partnership, Roadzen will utilize Cimarron’s brokerage licenses and platform to launch and expand its brokerage business in the U.S. Cimarron will have an active role in overseeing the production, appointment, and supervision of agents, as well as premium placement with carriers, while Roadzen will manage underwriting, sales, accounting, and claims processing through its global technology platform. In addition, Roadzen will onboard reinsurance and insurance partners, allowing it to remain asset-light and take on no underwriting risk under the partnership.

Rohan Malhotra, Founder and CEO of Roadzen, commented, “Our partnership with Cimarron represents a significant step in expanding our presence within the world’s largest auto insurance market. By joining forces, Roadzen can now offer not only our AI solutions, but also risk solutions through nationwide brokerage licenses, without taking on underwriting risk. This approach provides a comprehensive, integrated platform for fleets, carmakers, dealerships, and other partners. The U.S. brokerage market has shown strong revenue and margin growth, and we are excited to develop this market alongside Cimarron. With their nationwide brokerage licenses, we look forward to serving existing and new clients as well as forging partnerships with insurers.”
