What is a Group Insurance Captive?
A “captive” insurance company is an organization founded
with the sole purpose of providing business insurance to its owner(s).
Essentially, a captive is the purest form of self-insurance.
A business or group of businesses forms a captive in order to meet their
insurance needs without being beholden to the packages, limitations, and pricey
markups of the traditional marketplace.
A group insurance captive specifically involves a group or
“pool” of businesses with similar scales or goals coming together to create and
share a captive insurance company. That new company, managed by a designated
third party, obtains insurance for each owner/member organization, processes
their claims, and maintains the overall health of the pool.
How Do Businesses Benefit from Joining Our Group Insurance Captive?

natural question is: Why would you want to be part of one?
Organizations that form or participate in a group captive
have greater independence, greater power for self-determination, and greater
potential for profit. Let’s take a look at some of the specific ways those
gains play out:

your insurance. With a captive you own it.- Total continuity of services as desired

insurance is an expense; in a captive, it’s an opportunity
for return.- Get up to 60% average return on premium

the coverage you need and eliminate overspend.- No more bundled services you don’t want or need
