Captive insurance companies often rely on a broad ecosystem of service providers, including captive managers, consultants, actuaries, auditors, investment advisors, legal counsel, tax professionals, banks, and fronting carriers. However, many captive owners struggle to determine whether they are receiving maximum value from these relationships.

This session will explore practical strategies for establishing accountability, aligning service providers with organizational objectives, improving collaboration among advisors, and creating governance structures that drive better outcomes. Panelists will discuss common pitfalls, lessons learned, and best practices for transforming service providers from transactional vendors into strategic partners that contribute to the long-term success of a captive program.

Following this session, attendees will gain actionable insights on performance management, fee transparency, relationship governance, communication expectations, and leveraging providers to support strategic growth initiatives.
