TUPELO, Miss., May 31, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- BancorpSouth
Insurance Services (BXSI) announces the addition of Edward B. Scheinuk, CPCU and his team to the
agency. Scheinuk recently served as President of Eustis Risk
Management Resources in Metairie,
Louisiana. This Louisiana
addition marks the second Metairie BXSI office location and greatly
enhances BXSI's ability to serve clients in and around the
New Orleans area.
According to BXSI President Markham
McKnight, this expansion is part of the agency's long-term
growth strategy to expand its successful business in Louisiana and to diversify the portfolio of
BXSI and its parent company, BancorpSouth Bank.
"We are pleased to welcome Ed
(Scheinuk) and his team into the BXSI family," McKnight
said. "The decision to establish an office to be a part of our
legacy is one we never take lightly, but this process was eased
considerably because of the people we know who will be servicing
clients there."
Scheinuk has 35 years of insurance industry experience. He
provides risk management and insurance advice to regional, national
and international commercial accounts. Additionally, he provides
litigation support and expert witness services as well as ad hoc
advisory services to fee-based clients.
"We are excited to be a part of an organization that has a
strong history in Louisiana that
dates back to 1882," Scheinuk said. "This is an opportunity to
bring clients a wealth of new resources while working with a group
of people whose vision and philosophy regarding plan management and
client service are in tune with our knowledge-based client service
philosophy and practice."
The new BXSI office is at 321 Veterans Memorial Boulevard, Suite
200, Metairie, Louisiana 70005,
the same location where Scheinuk's team previously operated.
