There may be times when a company needs to mitigate a substantial risk that is not addressed effectively in the traditional insurance or financial markets.
We help companies address non-traditional exposures providing highly customised fronting programmes that apply insurance and capital market strategies.
Requiring evidence of insurance for regulatory, disclosure, financing, marketing, trading, or counterparty needs
Facing a specific problem for which there is no clear or viable risk transfer solution
Encountering a situation where current market conditions or shifting underwriting capacity are limiting availability of risk transfer
Planning a merger, acquisition, or divestiture in which difficult risks are impeding the transaction
Confronting significantly increased retentions or premiums
Experiencing restricted coverage due to adverse industry claim trends
Challenged with high attachment points due to poor loss experience or market conditions
Exploring the possibility of retaining risk as part of a comprehensive risk management strategy
Pursuing more efficient access to the excess markets
Evaluating the closure of redundant captives in response to capital requirements under the Solvency II Directive
Seeking to offset significant retained or self-insured legacy liabilities
Managing short term volatility that could be better controlled or financed over a multi-year time horizon
Considering alternatives to protect against the accumulation of retained losses and/or to free up capital
