Description

With commercial market insurance rates hardening, many insureds are looking to captives as a potential solution. While captives have frequently been used for longer-tail risks, they can also be effective for property risks which have a shorter tail and higher severity lower frequency profile. They may even provide an answer to funding losses from lockdowns similar to the Covid-19 restrictions. In this webinar we look at the current state of the commercial property market and how captives can be used in a property program, including:

  • Smoothing retentions through deductible buy-down captive programs
  • Accessing the property reinsurance market through a captive
  • Funding infrequent property losses on a tax efficient basis
  • Building capacity for difficult to place property risks, such as business interruption from public health ordinances
  • Filling gaps in layers of a property program
  • Using captives for terrorism risks

The webinar is suitable forcurrent and prospective captive owners who are interested in exploring alternative ways to insure property risk.
