Captive Insurance Solutions: Captive Formation & Management

Capstone Management Group delivers an alternative perspective to the conventional insurance market. We provide individual businesses, groups, and associations the opportunity to control their insurance costs through the formation and oversight of alternative risk transfer programs.

In its simplest and purest form, a captive is an insurance company that only insures all or part of
the risks of its parent/owner. However, this definition is rather narrow and fails to reflect the
way in which captives have developed over the years. It may be more useful to describe a captive as an insurer that writes risks whose origins are restricted, or risks to which it has unique access.
