Indianapolis, IN (PRWEB) December 17, 2014 -- United Benefit Advisors (UBA), the nation’s leading independent employee benefits advisory organization, is pleased to welcome Atlas Insurance Agency, Inc. as its newest Partner Firm. With origins dating back to 1929, Atlas Insurance Agency is the largest agency in Hawaii providing its clients with a full range of consulting services in the areas of employee benefits, property and casualty, and risk management. Based in Honolulu, with branch offices on the islands of Hawaii and Maui, Atlas Insurance Agency owes its longevity to service based on trust, performance, and integrity and by offering customers access to the most competitive products and services from numerous local and national providers.
Atlas Insurance Agency’s tagline of “local expertise, global resources” has served generation after generation of Hawaii businesses. This same philosophy exists at UBA where our Partners, in their local communities, collaborate with thousands of professionals around the world to leverage a greater amount of expertise and thought leadership. By partnering with UBA, agencies can find sophisticated, cost-effective solutions that are equal to, or better than, those from large brokerage firms while continuing to offer the personal service that only an independent advisor can deliver.

Hawaii is not just a place where Atlas Insurance Agency does business, it is their home. In addition to insuring local businesses and residents for more than 80 years, Atlas Insurance Agency has also generously supported the local community through charitable donations and volunteering with various charities. This is what they call the “Atlas spirit of Aloha.”
Atlas Insurance Agency recognizes that its success is dependent on motivated and happy employees. Atlas has received multiple awards including Hawaii Business Magazine’s Best Places to Work in Hawaii annually since 2008, and the Hawaii Better Business Bureau’s BBB Torch Award, for demonstrating excellence in the marketplace and commitment to high ethical standards.
