First Dollar
First dollar insurance, often called guaranteed cost, may be the right solution if you prefer to transfer all of your risk to the insurance company.Deductible Options
If you are looking to lower your upfront premium cost and take on a limited amount of risk, a deductible option may be right for you. We offer a range of deductible sizes to fit your needs.
We also offer Merge, a unique hybrid program that combines the advantages of a deductible with the control and potential rewards of a group captive – all with no downside risk!
Merge℠
Merge is our most unique group captive program, as it “merges” the best of both worlds: the upfront premium savings and cash flow advantages of a deductible plan with the greater pricing stability and potential return of underwriting profit of a group captive.
- Limited Risk Appetite- $10,000 Basket Deductible
