Article: Captive Insurance Companies — Creating Current and Recurring Revenue

Participating Chapters

Program Overview

As more states allow the formation of captive insurance companies, financial advisors need a solid understanding of this alternative way to insure risk and the benefits it can provide for their business owner clients and themselves. Creating a Captive Insurance Company is much like any other business…once established the owners have obligations, profits and losses and thus are in need of business planning, estate planning, risk management, asset management and a clear understanding of the uses of insurance in these planning situations. Because of the unique and specific laws governing insurance companies, it requires a team of advisors with the skills to handle the accounting, legal, life insurance, investment management, and other transference issues that arise. The planning team must be thoroughly knowledgeable about traditional estate and wealth transfer planning as well as the specific insurance company regulations that limit planning options. This program features a specially chosen panel of experts who will explain the formation, benefits, business and estate planning strategies for owners or Captive Insurance Companies. Attendees will come away with knowledge of how a captive insurance company can enhance a client's competitive advantage as well as the planning techniques it creates for a wide range of financial advisors.

Attendees will learn:

  • What a captive insurance company is, how it operates, and the types of risks it can insure against
  • The tax, estate planning, risk management, and wealth preservation benefits that can result from the use of a captive insurance company
  • Why captive insurance companies may now be appropriate for small businesses as well as large ones
  • The Life Insurance, Trust and Succession planning opportunities available to financial advisors relative to captive insurance companies

Who should attend?

Financial planners, insurance producers, investment advisors, and retirement counselors.
