Access to the reinsurance markets is a good reason to form a captive. Fact or Fiction?

This session will explore how valid this statement really is. Can the same capacity be accessed whether you have a captive or not? How much freedom of rate and form do you really have with a captive? If access to capacity is truly a reason for forming a captive why isn’t captive reinsurance a major line of business for Bermuda markets? Join the panel of brokers and underwriters for a lively debate.

Session: How effective risk management can enhance the performance of your captive

     Speaker:
            Andrew Welch, Business Development Director, Green Road Technologies
            Scott Gemmell, Vice President, Marsh Captive Solutions


How effective risk management can enhance the performance of your captive

Almost all companies actively manage their key risks at a corporate level, but what happens to those risks that are less critical to the sustainability of the corporation. These lower severity, perhaps higher frequency risks are those typically retained in captives. This session examines the value of actively managing these risks and explores some of the techniques and methods that have been used to successfully achieve a reduction in these types of losses.
