SPONSOR: Bidav Insurance Group

The Limited Partner Podcast is proudly sponsored by Bidav Insurace Group.

Today's episode is sponsored by Bidav Insurance Group. Bidav Insurance Group is run by my close friend, Amit Bidav, who insures me both personally and at the corporate level.

Most people are not aware of the inherent conflicts in insurance, where insurance agents are incentivized to send their clients to the most expensive option. Amit has always been an incredible partner to me and 10X Capital, driving down our fees considerably while providing a premium solution. I am proud to personally endorse Amit and I ask that you consider using Bidav Insurance Group for your next insurance need, whether it be D&O, cyber, or even personal, car, and home insurance.

You could email Amit at amit@luxstr.com.
