We’re proud to share some exciting news: Ruese Insurance Agency has once again been named a Best Practices Agency for 2026!
This prestigious recognition places Ruese Insurance Agency among a select group of high-performing independent insurance agencies from across the United States. It recognizes agencies that demonstrate strong performance, sound business practices, operational excellence, and a continued commitment to serving their clients.
For our team, this honor represents more than just an award. It reflects the hard work and dedication of the employees across all three of our offices in Sidney, Piqua, and Fort Loramie, and the trust our clients have placed in us for generations.
What Is a Best Practices Agency?
The Best Practices Study is conducted by the Independent Insurance Agents & Brokers of America (Big “I”) in partnership with Reagan Consulting. The study examines the financial and operational performance of independent insurance agencies throughout the country and identifies agencies that demonstrate exceptional performance within their respective revenue categories.
Best Practices Agencies are selected through a competitive nomination and qualification process. Agencies that receive the designation are among the top-performing firms in their revenue category and must continue to meet rigorous standards throughout the three-year study cycle by providing extensive financial and operational information for review.
Being recognized again in 2026 is especially meaningful to us because it demonstrates our continued commitment to maintaining high standards while providing the personal service our clients have come to expect from Ruese Insurance Group.
