Great American Insurance Group, a provider of insurance and risk management solutions for equipment lease and finance businesses, announced a strategic relationship with ECS Financial Services, a provider of lease portfolio management, tax compliance and accounting services to the equipment leasing industry.

Great American’s specialty insurance solutions are now being recommended by ECS, meeting the need of ECS clients wanting a complete risk management/account service solution. Similarly, Great American is referring business to ECS as an outsourced solution for compliance, accounting services and portfolio management. The relationship allows clients to take advantage of both companies’ expertise, helping them protect and manage their equipment portfolios more effectively and with fewer resources.

“It’s always a plus when we can offer our clients useful portfolio management tools, and Great American’s solutions are a great compliment to our current services. The synergies between our respective client bases also make this alliance a great fit,” said ECS Financial partner, Nancy Geary.

“Entering into this relationship with ECS Financial demonstrates our dedication to our clients’ long term success. We view the relationship with ECS as a complement to our products and services available to our clients,” commented Ken Schneider, Divisional Vice President, Specialty Equipment Services Division of Great American Insurance Group.
