Clients Rate Company's Service Delivery

Fort Worth, Texas – March 1, 2008 – State National Companies (SNC), a national leader in collateral protection insurance (CPI) solutions, has released the results of its 2007 end-of-year customer service survey. After surveying over 300 clients, the results confirmed that lenders and borrowers value State National's effective communication, customer service, and experienced and knowledgeable staff.

State National handles more than a half million borrowers' phone calls, processes over a quarter million insurance confirmations, and completes more than ten million insurance transactions annually. As these numbers continue to grow, State National is committed to maintaining quality customer service.

“We value the relationships between our company and our clients and, while our survey results remain high from year to year, our goal is always to provide the best possible service to our clients and their borrowers,” said Trace Ledbetter, senior vice president of service at State National. “The results of our 2007 survey reflect that attitude and show that we're achieving our objective.”

The survey focused on account manager service delivery, overall company service and clients' overall perception of State National as a partner. The company's annual survey has seen exceptional results in virtually every category during the past three years, and this year's results continue to show increased customer satisfaction in key areas.

“As the economy shifts, delinquencies rise and as margins continue to be squeezed, more lenders are looking to collateral protection insurance as a solution to improve their bottom line and protect their loan portfolios.” Ledbetter said. “Our commitment to customer satisfaction will allow State National to remain the CPI provider of choice for financial services firms nationwide.”
