New Captive.com White Paper Focuses on Pandemic and Captives

Captive.com and International Risk Management Institute, Inc., have created a special 12-page report examining some of the implications the COVID-19 pandemic and a hardening insurance market might hold for the captive insurance industry.

The new white paper, titled "The COVID-19 Pandemic: Opportunities and Implications for Captive Insurance," is available free to Captive Wire subscribers.

The report examines a number of risks created or heightened by the pandemic and how captive insurance companies might be a valuable tool in addressing them. It also considers the pandemic's impact on traditional insurance markets and how captives might provide important options in addressing rising premiums or lack of availability for some lines of coverage.

Among the topics covered in the white paper are pandemic business interruptions, the possible role for captives in tapping a potential federal pandemic risk backstop, and the hard market's impact on various coverage lines and how captive insurance companies might respond.

The report also details some of the different captive options available to insurance buyers, as well as important considerations in forming a captive or in taking on new or increased exposures.
