Rethink Risk. Reduce Costs. Reclaim Control.
The traditional insurance market is unpredictable. Premiums rise even when your losses are low, and you’re left with little control over pricing or claims handling. For companies with strong risk management, there’s a better way: a business insurance captive.
McConkey helps companies break free from the commercial market by joining group captive insurance programs, a smarter, more stable solution for managing core lines of business insurance.
What Is a Business Insurance Captive?
A business insurance captive is a member-owned insurance company made up of financially strong businesses with solid loss histories. Instead of paying premiums to a traditional insurer, you become a member of a captive group and share risk only with like-minded, safety-focused companies.
Together, you fund your own insurance program, take control of claims, and share in any underwriting profit and investment income that isn’t used for claims or operating costs.
Coverages Typically Included:
- General Liability
- Auto Liability & Physical Damage
- Workers’ Compensation
- Property
Why Consider a Captive for Business Insurance?
Cost Stability: Protect yourself from market swings and unpredictable rate hikes
Profit Potential: Receive returns on unused premium and investment income
Control: Engage in claims oversight and tailor your risk management strategy
Peer Grouping: Collaborate with businesses that take safety seriously
Transparency: Know exactly where your insurance dollars are going
Who’s a Good Fit for a Captive?
You may be a strong candidate if your company:
- Has $150K+ in combined annual premium across eligible lines
- Maintains a strong safety culture and consistent loss performance
- Has a long-term outlook on minimizing the net cost of risk
- Prefers transparency, control, and partnership in managing insurance
