What Lines of Coverage Are Available In the Captive?
Workers Compensation, General Liability and Automobile. In some cases members may be eligible for property coverage in a Captive.
What Are The Basic Eligibility Requirements?
Loss results over the past five years must be better than average. Premium expense for worker’s compensation, general liability and automobile insurance
should exceed $250,000 annually. The Traditional Marketplace Seems To Be Becoming More Competitive.
Why Should I Leave?
The traditional insurance marketplace commonly goes through “hard and soft” cycles, where premiums go up and down significantly with little relation
to your actual loss experience. Except for large catastrophic-size losses, an insurance premium will always exceed the cost of a loss over time. Companies
should always be carefully looking at where they should be positioned for the future. They must develop long term visions for their corporate risk-financing
program in lieu of succumbing to market-driven, short-term gains. They should start by applying a basic principle of risk management; don’t buy insurance
to cover losses which have a predictable frequency and which are within the funding capabilities of the company.
Am I Putting My Company In Financial Risk By Entering a Captive?
If all you were doing was paying a premium into a fund and hoping your losses didn’t exceed the fund that would be very risky. Our programs are structured
using only licensed, admitted, “A” rated insurance companies and reinsurers. Your risk is known and guaranteed in advance. In this manner, all you are
doing is assuming risk in a small predictable layer.
