Steve Spalding is President/CEO of CSI Insurance Management, an independent insurance division that specializes in coverage for the hospitality industry. 

Working in the specialty insurance industry since 1988, Steve has been a principal in several successful Hospitality/Entertainment/Sports ventures that specialized in meeting the insurance and financial needs of the many clients served.

Before being gobbled up in 1993 by Host Communications, Talent Sports International (TSI) was the largest sports marketing company in the southwest United States.  The pro athlete client list included Karl Malone, Mookie Blaylock, Spud Webb, Joe Dumars, and 30+ other NBA, NFL, Olympic and professional boxing members.  The corporate client list included EDS, Frito Lay, Pepsi, Dr. Pepper, American Airlines, Southwest Airlines, Kraft, Texaco, and many other fortune 500 companies.

After TSI, and until the turn of the millennium, Steve’s tenure at SCA Promotions helped propel the company into one of the leading providers of Prize Indemnity coverage in the world.  Many jackpot prizes including Hole-in-One, Radio listen-to-win, Athlete incentive’s, and many others are covered through various insurance and indemnity prize contract placements.

In 2002, the CSI partnership was born through the combination of companies controlled by Jim Chippendale and Steve Spalding.  CSI has since handled the specific client insurance needs for thousands of hospitality and entertainment companies nationwide. 

CSI has evolved into a network of standard and surplus lines carriers, captive programs, and risk purchasing groups that are utilized to provide customized insurance for thousands of clients nationwide.
