About Daniel & Henry

The difference is independence.

Jesse and carl, broadway office, 1922

In 1921, Carl Daniel and Jesse Henry launched a new vision for insurance: a full-service agency where independent brokers shared resources, expertise and combined buying power.

For more than a century, that model was imitated by countless firms. One-by-one, they’ve been acquired by corporate interests, losing independence and their ability to put the customer first.

Our clients aren’t for sale. Daniel & Henry is one of the largest independent brokerages in the country, and that isn’t going to change. 

Your risk is our risk. Public shareholders aren’t our priority, you are.

The name on our building honors Carl and Jesse, but what they started is even more meaningful now. It’s the difference between an insurance policy and a true insurance relationship.

It’s Daniel & Henry & You.

Here, and there, for you

Good friends
make better insurance.

Separating personal from professional never worked for Danny and Mike. “Broker” and “client” quickly became “hunting buddies” and then “best friends.” Mike calls Danny “the only family” he has in St. Louis. They don't worry about one relationship affecting the other. When you help your clients in the same honest, thoughtful, hardworking way that you’d help a friend — or family — there’s no reason to draw a line where one stops and the other starts.
