What is captive insurance?
A captive insurer offers insurance policies created explicitly for a specific industry by a specific industry. Captive insurance is unique because the companies are entirely owned and operated by the insureds.
Captive insurance agencies are organized and used by insureds when the standard products offered by traditional insurance companies don't meet the risk financing needs of the insureds. While it can be a good alternative insurance option, there are a couple of things to keep in mind.
- Those who participate in captive insurance put their own capital at risk
- Captive insurance works outside of the commercial insurance marketplace
Advantages of captive insurance
- Coverage is often tailored to the exact needs of an industry.
- Well-established captive insurers have a greater ability to retain risk and protect against rapid fluctuations occurring in the commercial market.
- Participants have ownership of the company and have a say in business services and decisions.
- You don't have to pay an overhead covering a commercial insurer's acquisition costs, admin, overhead, and profit.
- Improve cash flow through reduced insurance costs, insulation from market fluctuations, and more time available for you to spend focused on your business.
- Insurance programs and policies can be customizable.
