Marlin in N.J. Partners with Hartford for Insurance Referrals

Marlin Business Services in Mount Laurel, N.J., has partnered with property and casualty insurer Hartford Financial Services Group to expand services for its core clientèle.

The $714 million-asset holding company for Marlin Business Bank will refer its small-business customers to Hartford's commercial insurance products, according to a Tuesday news release.

Hartford's products for small businesses include policies for workers' compensation, business owners and business auto insurance.

Marlin Business Bank in July introduced an online platform where small-business owners can apply for loans of between $5,000 and $100,000.

The partnership with Hartford is intended to expand on the bank's online lending platform, to create a "one stop shop" for small business owners, Marlin said in the release.
