Program Captives Eyes Wide Open

Captives may offer Program Administrators the opportunity for increased revenue, greater program control and afford rate stabilization in an otherwise lumpy or unpredictable market cycle. In some cases it may also include exclusivity and a co-underwriting partnership with your carrier and position your program for coverage enhancements as surplus accumulates over time.
.
Captives, however, require significant financial, education and oversight resources and may not be the best alternative for some Program Administrators.

Join this panel of experts to better understand the risk, rewards and challenges of captive development. Attendees can expect a discussion that includes:

  • Basic facts about agency captives
  • Reasons to consider a captive
  • Collateral expectations
  • Captive Risks – what can go wrong
  • Key factors for success
  • How to start with a feasibility study
