Aon Broker Elena Rolseth Recognized as a 2024 Real Estate Power Broker
Elena Rolseth, Broker, Aon
Earlier this year, Elena Rolseth faced the nearly impossible task of finding coverage for a CAT-exposed property at a competitive rate in one of the hardest cycles the property market has ever seen.
She leveraged her broad knowledge of the market, her carrier relationships and her internal resources at Aon to pull in markets that previously wouldn’t even have entertained the thought of insuring this risk.
Ultimately, she was able to build a tower at a rate roughly 50% lower than the market average.
The head of risk management at one client company lauded Rolseth and her team’s ability to find creative solutions in an extraordinarily challenging market. He described her as diligent, responsive and “a pleasure to work with.”
Said another risk management client who also works with CAT-exposed properties, “I have worked with Elena as our property broker. She is well accomplished and diligent. She has assisted with restructuring a CAT risk property account while still maintaining full capacity and some savings in a very challenging property market.”
Rolseth takes an empathetic approach to her work, striving to understand her clients’ unique pressures so she can deliver not just insurance solutions but also peace of mind and a sense of trust in her and her team. She acts as an integral member of her clients’ teams and doesn’t shy away from challenges.
