DECEMBER 14, 2021

WASHINGTON, DC — FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

STRIDER, the leading bookings platform and software services provider for the equestrian industry, announced AHT Insurance (AHT) will join as a STRIDER Platinum Partner for 2022. AHT is an indirect subsidiary of BRP Group, Inc.

AHT specializes in risk management and insurance services, including property and casualty, employee benefits, retirement planning, private client, and international services.

“We’re proud to partner with AHT and enable our users access to AHT’s range of renown industry solutions. Their innovative Tack Insurance product and unwavering client focus is a natural fit for our STRIDER equine community.“ stated Tara Swersie, STRIDER CEO.
“Our users are dedicated to using the best services and products for their equine partners. That means they have considerable financial investment in their tack. Having a product that adequately protects their investment from loss or theft is a brilliant idea.”

Launched earlier this year, AHT’s new Tack Insurance product, powered by Markel, offers dedicated protection for saddles, bridles, apparel, and other equine equipment investments.

“We are thrilled to join Strider as a Platinum Partner. Strider brings innovative solutions to the equine industry and we are so pleased our AHT Tack Insurance product can be a part of that client focus,” says Tara Trout CIC, AFIS, CAPI, Partner at AHT Insurance.

“As a horse owner, I wanted the peace of mind that if all my horse related belongings had to be replaced, the process would be simple. We worked with Markel Insurance Company to create a Tack & Equestrian Collection Insurance policy to insure my saddle, various tack, horse blankets and gear, tack trunks, helmet, boots, etc. at a great rate with worldwide and in-transit coverage,” Trout adds.  

As part of AHT’s status as a Strider Platinum Partner, AHT will also sponsor STRIDER’s popular Professional Development Webinar Series in 2022. Industry experts from AHT will provide webinar attendees practical insurance considerations that apply to equine business and farm owners.
