TODAY'S GUEST
Michael VanErdewyk, ReliaMax Founder and CEO
HEMAR was started in 1986 as a private student loan insurance company. In 1996 Sallie Mae purchased HEMAR but HEMAR could only insure loans originated by Sallie. Mike started a workers compensation insurance company and worker compensation GMA in Sioux Falls, SD. Mike sold both companies in 2006 because he purchased HEMAR from Sallie Mae in 2006. The company went from an insurance company insuring private student loans to an online marketplace platform known as ReliaMax today.
