Policyholders considering their options in a tightening insurance market with higher premiums and fewer insurance markets will benefit from this material. Beyond considering what additional risks policyholders may wish to absorb to limit the increases in premiums they face, this topic will explain the benefits and pitfalls of fronting policies, captive insurance companies with access to the reinsurance market, and maximizing their benefits as additional insureds under other parties’ insurance. Benefits and risks of each option will be explored. We also will address incident management and reporting so that pitfalls may be avoided. Risk managers, insurance directors and counsel will gain insight useful in the current insurance market.
