In addition, a large number of related services and technologies have a major influence on the insurance and risk management business. These services include e-commerce, call centers and information technologies.

This carefully-researched data is a complete insurance market research and business intelligence tool-- everything you need to know about the business of insurance and risk management, including:

  2. Life Insurance
  3. Personal Lines

Whether you purchase the printed almanac or buy a subscription to the online edition, you will find a complete overview, industry analysis and market research tool in one superb, value-priced package.

We provide you with our famous industry trends analysis, statistical tables, and a glossary, along with a database of industry contacts including associations and professional societies. And you receive our proprietary, in-depth profiles of hundreds of leading companies in all facets of this industry—public and private companies, U.S. and non-U.S. based.

Electronic Access to Company Profiles: Our online data enables you to search, filter and view selected companies, and then export contact data into text or Excel, including executive names with titles, plus the company addresses and phone numbers.

Migration from CD-ROM to Online Tools: 2010 and earlier editions of our printed almanacs (published before June 2010) come with a CD-ROM that contains a complete database of company profiles. For 2011 editions (published June 2010 and later), we have migrated to a special set of online tools provided to book buyers at no additional charge. Buyers of these newer editions receive a form enabling them to register for 1-year, 1-seat online access to special tools at Plunkett Research Online, including the ability to view the market research/industry trends section and industry statistics. In this manner, you have online access the very latest data posted to Plunkett Research Online for one year. With either the CD-ROM or the online tools, you will be able to access the company profiles to search, view and export company data and contacts.
