About Frontier Risk

Frontier Risk is the first tech-enabled insurance solution for the cannabis sector and first dedicated cannabis insurance brokerage staffed by former cannabis executives.

Our data-driven, service-first brokerage model allows us to provide better risk management solutions than traditional brokers who are still "getting up to speed" on cannabis. The cannabis business is growing rapidly, but it lacks specific insurance and risk consulting solutions built and implemented by experts who have lived risk throughout the cannabis value chain.

Cannabis claims are complicated, yet quote-to-bind-to-claims service is bad. Policy management should be like checking email. Frontier Risk's software platform simplifies risk management tasks including retrieving a Certificate of Insurance or adding an extra insured or endorsement.

We've lived our clients' operations, pain points, and hazards as cannabis operators. We offer top brokerage and risk management advising services by combining institutional knowledge with underwriting and insurtech expertise.
