The State of the State: Connecticut’s Evolving Captive Marketplace

Disrupting the Market: The InsurTech Captive Revolution

Captive owners are already experts in stripping the insurance transaction of all unnecessary expense.

When we talk about “market disruption,” captives have been on the forefront of that for thirty years.

What is InsurTech?  How does it work?  How is it expected to change the future?  

What can captives learn from commercial insurance market innovation and investment initiatives?

Cyber Liability in Captives: Why Worry?

People began asking the obvious question: “Can I write cyber security coverage through my captive, and, if so, how?”
