WHAT WE DO / INSURANCE & REINSURANCE / CAPTIVES

We have extensive experience in advising on corporate, commercial, regulatory and contentious matters concerning captives. We (and our network of local experts) are able to provide advice on:

Our Team

  • identifying the nature and objectives of the captive (which, in our experience, is of fundamental importance in ensuring commercial success and the control of costs)
  • choice of country of establishment
  • issues arising from the type or location of risks
  • structuring of the insurance and reinsurance programmes
  • compliance issues (ranging from capital requirements to corporate filings)
  • documentation as regards shareholders, directors, investment managers, brokers and policyholders
  • ongoing corporate obligations including directors’ duties
  • prevention and management of conflicts involving service providers (such as claims handlers)
  • litigation matters including claims and reinsurance disputes
  • run-off and wind-up of captives
  • ensuring that our client’s overall interests and objectives are recognised in all matters relating to the captive (including set-up, operation, claims and litigation).

We have also produced a guide to setting up a captive which is available here.
