CIBGNY members come from all New York City Boroughs, Long Island, Westchester, and Rockland Counties. The CIBGNY originated in 1967 as an association of various local New York City brokers’ associations and subsequently became the successor organization. Its retained vendor staff and member volunteer leadership help promote and ensure equitable treatment of its agent/broker members and the insurance and financial security needs and interests of their clients.

CIBGNY provides a significant and proactive advocacy voice for its members and clients’ interests and concerns. It also provides a forum for the exchange of ideas through both professional education and professional networking.
