Captive Academy

New to the Captive Industry or just need a refresher? Register for Captive Academy on September 28. Sponsored by Strategic Risk Solutions.

This interactive seminar covers definitions and types of captives and the benefits and requirements of each type. Attendees will learn why and when to consider captives and the differences in captive, self-insurance and traditional insurance.

The research, establishment and management of a captive will be covered as well as reporting requirements for the regulator and owners. Attendees will learn about the pre-feasibility study, stakeholder education, strategies, funding, capital and collateral requirements, banking, investments, attorneys’ roles, and ownership structure.

SCCIA Members - Provide a Benefit for Your Captive Client!

Each SCCIA service provider member is allotted a complimentary Captive Academy registration for a representative from a captive insurance company that is a prospective member of the SCCIA. This is the perfect way to introduce your client or prospective client to the SCCIA, South Carolina state regulators, and similarly situated professionals. Contact the SCCIA office to register.
