Church Mutual, a Wisconsin-based carrier that specializes in insurance for religious organizations, announced Wednesday the launch of a new digital subsidiary that will cater to smaller churches and houses of worship.

The carrier said in a press release that its CM Select Insurance Co. is the first insurer to offer online access to a product created specifically for small organizations.

“As all sectors of business, including faith-based organizations, move toward a digital-first approach, we’ve taken the opportunity to disrupt the market with CM Select,” stated Kurt Brandau, CM Select president. “Churches, especially smaller churches, tend to be strapped for time and are looking for convenient coverage that is unique to their specific needs.”

CM Select is now writing business owner policies for smaller churches and other religious organizations in Michigan, with plans to launch in Arkansas, Colorado, Missouri, North Carolina, Tennessee, Texas and Wisconsin by year’s end, the carrier said.
