WSRB will no longer mail out hardcopy Circulars after January 1, 2010: WSRB currently offers electronic Circular notification to supplement our hardcopy service. This hardcopy service will no longer be available as of January 1, 2010. This means you must sign up for Electronic Notification by the end of the year in order to keep abreast of current WSRB filings! Go to www.WSRB.com/Members and Log-In. On the navigation menu, click "Documents/Request." Choose "Email Circular Registration Form" and complete required fields.

New Product for Agents: InsureSafe: A message to our insurance agent customers: WSRB, and its subsidiary, Building Metrix, Inc., are developing new products and services for insurance companies and insurance agents. Because companies and agencies have different needs, we are creating different versions of these products so that we can meet the needs of both groups. Building Metrix has been working with another company, Succeed Management Solutions, to develop an "agents-only" product, called InsureSafe, that combines the free resources of WSRB with optional services that agents might be interested in. You'll be receiving email from us regarding moving your WSRB account to this new service. Our goal is to make the transition from the WSRB web site to the Building Metrix web site seamless and trouble-free for agents. Agents will continue to receive the valuable WSRB services you have been getting, such as PROTECTION, at no charge. As we add new services, agents will have the option of continuing with the free services or upgrading to additional services for a fee. There is no obligation to purchase anything. Please contact David Bruell (206.273.7196) or Tracy Skinner (206.273.7146) if you have any questions or concerns.
