WESTBROOK, CT--(Marketwired - Nov 5, 2013) -  O'Brien Communications Group (OCG) has been selected by Brovada of Toronto, Ontario, Canada, to position and promote its brand in the U.S. market. A provider of connectivity to insurance carriers, brokers, MGAs, and retail agents, Brovada's software helps all parties to insurance transactions interact more quickly, efficiently, and effectively.

"The principled integrity of the Brovada team -- combined with their commitment to improve the industry they serve -- made them an attractive prospect. Because of that, we're pleased they've become a client."

Brovada offers complete, round-trip connectivity for carriers, brokers/MGAs, and retail agents, providing an integrated environment that includes everything for agencies from inquiry to new-business processing, from ratings and rules engines to endorsement processing and management system integration -- and everything for carriers from inquiries to new-business submissions and policy changes.
