WORCESTER, Mass., March 21, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- The Hanover Insurance Group, Inc. (NYSE: THG) recently introduced HanoverProRisk, an online portal featuring risk management tools tailored to the specific needs of the professional liability industry. Demonstrating The Hanover's continued commitment to the specialty market, HanoverProRisk offers articles, templates, risk bulletins and seminars focused on the needs of agents and customers.

With the increasing number and complexity of risks facing many small and midsized businesses, risk management has become more challenging. HanoverProRisk offers the most important risk management resources on an easy-to-use site, organized by business type. HanoverProRisk ensures agents and policyholders are receiving the most relevant tools and resources necessary to help protect against risk and reduce the chance of loss.
