Steven R. Gross - Chairman and Chief Executive Officer

He started in the retail agency business in 1983, representing both national stock and regional companies. In 1990, he sold his retail business and began to focus on developing a wholesale operation with a focus on, on-going relationships with retail agents and working with them while offering them advice on how to handle and sell an account.

Whatever the account, Metro has an underwriting philosophy of building relationships one risk at a time.  While working in partnership, we don't just quote an account for our agents, rather we underwrite it along with them.  This is what makes the difference when working with Metro Insurance. From the mundane to the unusual, large or small, Metro has the ability to meet your agency's needs.

Barbara J. Gross - Chief Financial Officer

Barbara brings over 20 years of accounting experience to Metro. A retired CPA, Barbara is responsible for all aspects of the financial operations of the company. Having an experienced accountant on staff is extremely beneficial to the organization and to our clients.

Arthur Petzel - Vice President

Arthur joined Metro in 1999 establishing a unique property underwriting hub in Pennsylvania. 

An underwriter with twenty-five years of insurance company experience, Arthur not only brought knowledge to the table, but also a tried and true following of wholesale agent relationships.

Wholesalers come to us, because we have the capacity they need. With binding authority on behalf of Lloyd's of London to write up to $17,500,000 in property limits, the results have been tremendous.  Because of Art's experience as an underwriter, he works with other wholesalers who cannot write the limits they need by themselves.
