Rockwood Programs began in July of 1996 as a wholly owned subsidiary of E.W. Blanch. Its original charter was to provide Blanch clients with access to a diverse array of distribution systems through which insurance products can be marketed.

The Rockwood management team concluded a buy-out of the company on July 1, 2000. We are confident that the unique blend of marketing expertise, industry reputation, and talented professional staff will allow us to continue to be successful.
