Euclid Crisis Management Launches to Redefine Crisis Management Insurance

Itasca, IL, July 10, 2025 – We are excited to announce the launch of Euclid Crisis Management (“ECM”), a Managing General Agent specializing in comprehensive crisis management insurance solutions for product contamination, product recall, and restaurant contamination.  ECM is redefining the standard for crisis management insurance – not just as another program, but as a purpose-built platform designed to deliver clarity, forward-thinking solutions, and exceptional service in a complex and fast-evolving marketplace.

In partnership with Euclid Program Managers, a trusted name in the MGA space, we built a strong foundation that includes securing a carrier partnership with AmTrust Financial Services, Inc., a global commercial insurer known for its financial strength, underwriting expertise, and commitment to supporting innovative, specialized insurance programs.

Scott Harper and Joe Cala are Co-Managing Principals of ECM.  With over 30 years of combined industry experience, they bring deep expertise, strategic insight, and strong leadership to the firm.  Together, they are dedicated to delivering high-quality insurance solutions that evolve with the needs of ECM’s clients.

“One of ECM’s key differentiators is the versatility of our policy forms,” said Scott Harper.  “Designed to serve a broad spectrum of businesses – from small, mom & pop operations to large multinational companies – our forms are fully customizable and include new coverage enhancements tailored to today’s risk landscape.”

“We also recognize that managing a crisis requires more than just insurance coverage,” said Joe Cala.  “That’s why we offer clients the flexibility to choose their own consultants for both pre- and post-incident support.  These experts provide invaluable guidance to help businesses mitigate risks and recover effectively.”

“We are proud to support ECM in bringing a fresh, expert-driven approach to the crisis management space,” said John Colis, President and CEO of Euclid Program Managers.  “Their focus on innovation and client service aligns perfectly with Euclid’s values.”

“AmTrust is proud to support Euclid Crisis Management in reshaping crisis management insurance for the industry. We have collaborated closely with ECM to deliver a product tailored to the unique needs of the marketplace, helping businesses operate with confidence and clarity,” said Dan Hickey, President, AmTrust Specialty Insurance.
