Marketing Manager Zoe Parsons shares the importance of our new MGAA annual silver sponsorship

REG Technologies announces Silver Sponsorship of the MGAA

We’re pleased to announce that REG Technologies is now an official Silver Sponsor of the Managing General Agents’ Association (MGAA) – a move that formalises over five years of close collaboration and shared commitment to the MGA community.

REG Technologies announces silver sponsorship of the MGAA

This sponsorship is more than just a badge for us. It reflects our long-standing belief in the importance of the MGA model – and our recognition of the MGAA as a key force in supporting, strengthening, and championing the role MGAs play across the insurance ecosystem.

For those less familiar, the MGAA is the UK’s only trade association dedicated exclusively to managing general agents.

Founded in 2011, it was established to give MGAs a stronger voice in the market – one that reflects their unique position in the insurance value chain and the increasingly vital role they play in underwriting, innovation, and distribution.

Since then, the MGAA has grown into a highly respected membership body representing a dynamic and growing sector. 

It provides members with access to regulatory guidance, technical support, professional development opportunities, and a thriving calendar of events, working groups, and forums that encourage open dialogue and collaboration across the industry.

Whether you’re an MGA, insurer, broker, or service provider, the MGAA is where meaningful conversations happen – and where long-term partnerships often begin.

Quote from Zoe Parsons, Marketing Manager at REG regarding the MGAA annual silver sponsorship: Through this sponsorship, we’re aiming to bring even more value to the MGA community. Whether that’s through exclusive insights, closer collaboration, or simply being a trusted tech partner who understands the pressures MGAs face everyday.

At REG, we’ve had the privilege of working with many MGAA members over the years – supporting them through evolving market challenges, increasing regulatory complexity, and the rising pressure to modernise processes. We understand that MGAs are fast-moving businesses. They thrive on agility, innovation, and deep sector knowledge. But to scale sustainably, they also need to remain compliant, reduce risk, and maintain robust oversight across a growing network of trading partners.

That’s where REG comes in. Our platform, the REG Network, is a secure, cloud-based solution designed to simplify how MGAs – and the wider distribution chain – manage agency operations. We help firms’ onboard brokers, insurers, and suppliers more efficiently, automate TOBA and documentation processes, monitor counterparty risk in real time, and meet key regulatory requirements around ESG, Consumer Duty, AML, Fair Value, and more.

The result? Less time spent chasing information, managing spreadsheets, or worrying about governance – and more time spent growing the business with confidence.

Quote from Paul Tasker, CEO at REG Technologies saying: Many MGAs share our values - It’s really important to them to find customers, onboard them efficiently and start trading in a compliant manner. Our technology fully supports that mission and we’re proud to be an important part of that growth journey

Our mission has always been to enable faster, smarter, and safer trading across the insurance market. And we’ve built our solution specifically around the needs of MGAs – whether they’re navigating delegated authority frameworks, expanding into new product lines, or simply trying to improve operational efficiency.

With that in mind, this new Silver Sponsorship is a natural next step in our journey with the MGAA. It allows us to contribute more meaningfully to the association’s work, engage more closely with its member base, and continue to champion the value of modern technology in helping MGAs do what they do best – underwrite with precision, grow with purpose, and adapt with speed.

As we formalise this next stage of our relationship, we want to reaffirm what this means to us:

“REG Technologies is proud to become an Annual Silver Sponsor of the MGAA, building on over five years of meaningful partnership. MGAs are an integral part of the insurance market – bringing agility, innovation, and niche expertise to the value chain. The MGAA plays a pivotal role in connecting MGAs, insurers, and suppliers, strengthening relationships and facilitating a collaborative ecosystem that accelerates growth across the sector.

As a RegTech partner to many MGAA members, REG supports this ecosystem by enabling faster, smarter, and safer B2B trading – helping firms uphold compliance, enhance governance, and unlock new opportunities with confidence. We’re excited to continue strengthening our affinity with the MGAA and its members through deeper engagement, shared insight, and a commitment to driving meaningful progress across the market.” – Zoe Parsons, Marketing Manager

This sponsorship also opens up opportunities for REG to take a more active role in MGAA working groups, panel discussions, insight sessions, and industry events. We’ll be engaging even more closely with members to understand what challenges they’re facing – and to share ideas, tools, and solutions that help them thrive.

As ever, our focus remains on supporting the insurance market through better technology, deeper collaboration, and a shared vision for progress. We’re incredibly proud to be part of this next chapter with the MGAA – and excited about what lies ahead.

Here’s to new ideas, new relationships, and continued momentum in 2025 and beyond.

With constant economic uncertainties and a fluctuating political landscape, MGAs (Managing General Agents) are now faced with bigger regulatory and compliance burdens than ever before.

MGAA Webinar: How MGAs Can Supercharge The Agency Experience

It’s nearly 20 years since statutory regulation of general insurance placed the acronym TOBA into everyday insurance talk. Agency application processes have developed little in that time, with brokers still reporting that their onboarding journeys with suppliers are slow, repetitive and leave business opportunities missed. Many MGAs limit the number of brokers they trade with, simply because of the drama associated with opening an agency! With online bank account opening, mobile onboarding, e-signatures, and pre-filled forms we ask…How can MGAs use tech to rapidly find, engage, sign and trade with new producers in an on demand, global, digital marketplace?

Today, the insurance industry faces a myriad of challenges that are constantly developing, ranging from economic and geopolitical factors to internal discrepancies like data silos and team fragmentation – and MGAs are not exempt.

How Can MGAs Drive Superior Customer Experience and Enhance Retention

MGAs play an irreplaceable role in the insurance sector, and while it’s crucial for them to be on top of all their regulatory and compliance duties, they also need to ensure seamless customer experience (CX) and retention. At the end of the day, customers should always be at the heart of every business decision because without them, no firm would survive. In addition, MGAs need to ensure they’re always treating their clients fairly. According to Forrester, 41% of customer-obsessed firms achieved at least 10% revenue growth in 2023, compared to only 10% of less mature firms...
