Krauter & Company

What Krauter & Company does

Krauter & Company, doing business as Krauter Group, is a New York-based private insurance brokerage firm offering international insurance and brokerage benefits services. The company operates with 101-250 employees and is led in part by Vice President Neil Krauter. Its service scope centers on intermediating international insurance placements and employee benefits brokerage for clients, indicating a specialty focus on cross-border coverage and group benefits administration rather than generalist P&C distribution. No proprietary technology platform, app, or API is documented in available sources, and the firm does not appear to operate consumer-facing software products.

The company's current ownership and operating status have been reshaped by an acquisition: Krauter Group is now a part of Risk Strategies, a larger strategic operating company in the insurance brokerage space. The Krauter Group website redirects to Risk Strategies, confirming the absorption. The revenue model is consistent with standard brokerage economics — commissions and fees on placed insurance and benefits policies — though no specific pricing schedules, carrier appointments, customer counts, or revenue figures are disclosed. Operating geographies and customer segment data are likewise not detailed in the input, limiting deeper financial triangulation.
