North Peak Access
More markets. More ways to place business.
North Peak Access gives your agency more ways to access the markets you need — from Market Access appointments and straight-through quoting to specialty markets and wholesale placement support.
Whether you’re looking for a solution for a hard-to-place risk, specialty coverage, or simply a market you don’t have access to today, North Peak Access helps expand your reach and find more ways to place business.
One relationship. Every market you need.
Additional & Specialty Markets
In addition to Market Access appointments, Bold Penguin also offers access to several additional and specialty markets through simplified enrollment experiences.
Unlike Market Access carriers, these markets do not require a formal appointment approval process through Bold Penguin. Instead, agencies can quickly enroll and gain direct access to quoting opportunities through the carrier’s connected platform experience.
These “easy enrollment” markets provide a fast way to expand access to specialty, E&S, and niche business opportunities without waiting for traditional appointment workflows.
RT Specialty provides access to specialty and excess & surplus (E&S) markets for harder-to-place risks and unique business classes.
Through the Bold Penguin Terminal, agents can enroll directly with RT Specialty and begin submitting eligible business. Review how to become appointed with RT Specialty.
RT Specialty is commonly used for:
Higher hazard or complex risks
Specialty liability placements
E&S business not eligible for standard markets
Classes requiring broader underwriting flexibility
Pathpoint offers streamlined access to small commercial E&S products through a digital quoting experience.
Agents can complete a simple enrollment process and access Pathpoint directly from within the Terminal without needing a traditional Market Access appointment.
Pathpoint is designed to help agencies:
Quickly quote eligible E&S risks
Access multiple specialty carrier products
Handle business that may fall outside standard appetite guidelines
Improve turnaround times for specialty submissions
Neptune Flood provides digital flood insurance solutions for residential and commercial properties.
Enrollment is simple and does not require a Market Access appointment approval through Bold Penguin. Once enrolled, agents can begin accessing Neptune’s flood quoting capabilities directly.
Neptune helps agencies:
Offer standalone flood coverage options
Access private flood market solutions
Quote flood coverage quickly through a digital experience
Expand protection offerings beyond standard property placements
Propeller provides digital access to commercial surety bond solutions through an easy enrollment process within the Terminal.
Propeller enables agencies to:
Access commercial bond products digitally
Simplify the bond request process
Support contractor and business insurance needs
Quickly obtain eligible bond quotes and issuance options
How is this different from a Market Access appointment?
North Peak Access offers agencies multiple ways to access and place business, with the path depending on the market and risk.
Market Access appointments require a review and approval process before agencies can quote under Bold Penguin’s master code.
Additional & Specialty Markets such as RT Specialty, Pathpoint, Neptune, and Propeller use simplified enrollment workflows, allowing agencies to establish access more quickly without going through the traditional Market Access appointment process.
For other risks, North Peak Access may provide a straight-through quoting and binding experience or access to our Placement team for risks requiring additional placement support.
One relationship. More ways to access the market.
Not every risk follows the same path — and that’s the point.
Through North Peak Access, your agency can access a growing range of admitted and E&S solutions through Market Access appointments, simplified enrollments, straight-through quoting, and wholesale placement support.
The path may vary depending on the risk and market, but the goal is the same: give your agency more options and help you find the right home for your clients’ business.
