Wheaton, Ill., Jan. 6, 2011--Member insurance companies of the American Association of Insurance Services (AAIS) now have access to additional risk information services through AAIS's proprietary web portal.

AAIS is a national advisory organization that develops standardized policy forms and rating information used by more than 600 P/C companies throughout the U.S.

This week, AAIS implemented its "AAISalliance" of information providers accessible through the newly redesigned AAISdirect online library of policy forms, manuals, bulletins, and other information.

With the AAISalliance, AAIS member companies can access information services throughAAISdirect at discounted rates.

"The AAISalliance allows each individual AAIS member company to access these services with the purchasing power of our collective membership," says Rick Maka, AAIS director of marketing and strategic alliances. "This initiative is directly in line with our mission of helping our member insurance companies compete in the market."

To date, the alliance includes four other organizations that will remain independent but provide AAIS member companies with information services under arrangements with AAIS.
