The regulatory landscape for captive insurance in the European Union is evolving, with Solvency II amendments bringing significant changes to capital requirements, proportionality, and reporting obligations. In this episode, Joel Appelbaum, chief content officer at IRMI and Captive.com, sits down with Alex Gedge, senior captive consultant at Hylant, to discuss what these updates mean for captives and how organizations can adapt. Solvency II, introduced over a decade ago, was designed to enhance the financial stability of insurers operating within the European Union. However, its one-size-fits-all approach has long been a challenge for captives, which operate with distinct risk profiles compared to traditional insurers. The latest amendments introduce a more proportional regulatory framework, reducing capital burden and simplifying governance requirements for small and noncomplex undertakings. Alex provides insights into how captives can leverage these changes, including the benefits of the reduced cost-of-capital rate in risk margin calculations, strategies for adapting to evolving environmental, social, and governance regulations, and how captives can position themselves for long-term success in a shifting regulatory environment.

It's an ideal strategy for savvy business owners willing to take calculated risks for greater rewards.Van also draws parallels between 401(k) and 831(b) accounts, shedding light on their similarities in terms of tax benefits, contribution limits, and compliance requirements. However, the real magic of 831(b) Plans lies in their ability to mitigate various business risks that may not be covered by traditional insurance, such as supply chain interruptions, cybersecurity attacks, and even brand damage.Delving deeper into the history of 831(b) Microcaptives, Van discusses the legislative milestones and regulatory framework that have shaped their evolution over the years. From the Tax Reform Act of 1986 to the more recent PATH Act of 2015, which increased premium amounts and introduced inflation riders, these legislative developments have made 831(b) Plans an increasingly attractive option for businesses seeking comprehensive risk management solutions.Join us as we unravel the complexities of Micro-Captive Insurance and discover how it can be a game-changer for your business's risk management strategy.

Please tune in to this episode of The Building BITE Podcast, as we hear from industry experts about key topics to help you be successful. The Building BITE hosts Chris Epps, LEED AP and Mike Diercksen, CRIS, welcome David Guerino, SVP and Managing Director of Captive Insurance at KeyState Companies, and Scott Allan, Chief Risk Officer at STO Building Group. We begin the episode by discussing David and Scott's professional careers in the construction and insurance industries that eventually lead them to partnering together in creating a captive. David works to help demonstrate some of the many nuances around setting up captives while Scott shares his firsthand experience in the matter. From there, we have a great conversation which is highlighted by our three key takeaways. 1. A Captive Is a Great Tool: Captives are formalized funding mechanisms that are regulated and can vary depending on where they are domiciled. As a potential risk mitigation solution, they are uniquely designed to help you manage and mitigate the cost of your risk. 2. There Is a Misconception Around How Risk Is Transferred: Just because you have formed a captive does not mean that the risk has been eliminated. It is important to educate owners and the C-Suite regarding best practices within the captive and discuss effective strategies when deploying their risk mitigation resources. 3. Partner With Strong Business Partners: Like all business relationships, it is important to make sure you are selecting strong partners that align with your business. Choosing the right team to be your Captive Manager can determine how effective your new risk mitigation strategy will be. These trusted relationships will play a key role in the current and future success of the program.
