Growth spurt: Captive managers across the industry expect substantial increases in the number of new captive formations and the resurrection of existing, dormant captives as the property/casualty market hardens. (Alternative Market Property/Casualty).

Captive insurance company managers expect explosive growth in captive formations and their use over the next 12 to 24 months, as traditional risk transfer becomes more expensive and less available and the definition of risk changes.

Some leading captive managers say the much-anticipated arrival of the hard property/casualty insurance market has been accelerated by the terrorist attacks on Sept. 11, which are expected to result in losses ranging from $30 billion to $70 billion. As capacity and coverage problems permeate traditional property/casualty lines, the significant increases in the cost of covering risk and the need for risk managers to change their way of doing business are bringing forth a renewed interest in captive formation.

Captive insurance companies are formed by large corporations whose primary business isn't insurance or by trade associations when coverage is either not available in the traditional insurance markets or is too expensive.

The prolonged soft market allowed companies to find affordable insurance solutions in the primary markets. Now that companies are paying higher premiums for less coverage, captive managers believe that captives will play a key strategic role by filling gaps in programs, managing increased retentions and offering access to the reinsurance markets for their parent companies. "That's the traditional use of captives," said Alan Cossar, executive director for Aon Insurance Managers (Bermuda) Ltd.

"The hardening markets will be a boon to captives," said Tim Byrne, managing director for Willis Management (Dublin) Ltd., Ireland. "As we discuss terms with the market, it is evident that, in addition to significant premium increases, there are substantial reductions in terms of coverage on offer and capacity is shrinking. Captives are well positioned to react to these market changes in view of their ability to create greater flexibility in managing their retentions and cover, including their ability to access, on a direct basis, the reinsurance markets."

Captive managers across the industry expect substantial increases in the number of new captive formations and the resurrection of existing, dormant captives. Tom Clark, director of HSBC Financial Services (Cayman) Ltd., said the number of new formations has the potential to be on par with levels in the mid-1980s, which were driven by a crisis in liability coverage.

"What I see indicates that the traditional property/casualty companies are anticipating premium rates being higher for a considerable period of time. If that happens, it will generate additional interest in captives, and I think we could be back to the mid1980s situation," Clark said.

Guy F. Ragosta, managing director for North American/Caribbean operations of Willis Corroon Management (Vermont) Ltd., expects the number of new captives formed from mid-2001 through 2002 to total more than all the captives formed in the past five years. "We're the busiest we've been in nine years. It's a good time to be a captive manager," Ragosta said.

Inquiries at Willis' operations in Dublin have almost doubled since Sept. 11, with questions ranging from what companies can do if certain scenarios develop to how long it will take and what it will cost. Marsh Management Services (Dublin) Ltd. has "a very substantial prospect list" and expects to have eight to 10 new formations completed from the end of 2001 through the first several months of 2002, said Ian Clancy, managing director at Marsh Manage ent Services (Dublin) Ltd.

In Guernsey, the third-largest captive domicile, "regulators would average one application per month per are now receiving one per day," said Malcolm Cutts-Watson, managing director for Willis Management (Guernsey) Ltd.

Growing Lines

The growth areas for captive formation and use are in the traditonal property/casualty lines, including property, workers' compensation, general liability, medical liability and business interruption.

"You might see some unique coverage for terrorism or bioterrorism, but I think that's going to be limited," said Seamus Tivnan, senior vice president and branch manager for Marsh Management Services Cayman Ltd.

Employee benefits and health care are other business lines expected to increase the use of captives, especially in domiciles such as Cayman or Dublin. Driving this expansion are the cost savings and efficiencies an organization can gain from running its own insurance company and removing the profit element from the premium. "I've seen some estimates that show you can save 10% to 15% of the premium by using a captive," Cutts-Watson said.

Growth in captive formation also is anticipated from single-industry mutual insurers or trade associations, which might have some difficult-to-place risks. Many will have to overcome threats such as competitive differences and mistrust. For example, the airline industry faces problems placing coverage because of terrorism exclusions following the Sept. 11 attacks.

Likewise, the utility sector has experienced four years of unprofitable underwriting, according to a report issued by Willis' operations in Guernsey and captive managers expect that industry to generate more captives. Rate increases averaged 30% for the first three quarters of 2001. Since Sept. 11, capacity in the utility market has narrowed, with the largest impact in property and business interruption coverages.

Utility property insurance rates are expected to rise by as much as 100% in 2002, as reinsurers look to spread their World Trade Center losses across other lines. By creating a market of their own, mutual insurance companies within these sectors can potentially increase their capacity and spread their risk.

The United States, specifically, should see some changes in the types of risk moving into captives, Ragosta said. "Companies are now looking to their captives to participate in all layers of their property placements, including the working layer," he said.

Some captive managers expect the use of existing captives to rise, as well as the use of special-purpose vehicles, such as protected-cell companies and securitization transactions, to transfer traditional risk to the capital markets. "It's a fair comment to say there will be a significant increase in catastrophe bonds. Every year, the predictions for cat bonds have been optimistic. But I think the events of Sept. 11 now create a very favorable market for cat bonds," said Tim Hennessy, senior vice president of Marsh Management Services (Dublin) Ltd.

Risk Management Redefined

The types of coverage and risk aren't the only changes the captive market will see, especially after Sept. 11. Considering that the market already was beginning to turn, the events of Sept. 11 caused capacity to virtually disappear overnight, accelerating changes and raising the bar in terms of risk assessment and pricing. Some captive managers believe the events of Sept. 11 might have accelerated the hardening of the markets by as much as three or four months.

Risk managers now face a new world when looking at and managing risk, and they will need to focus on core issues and core insurance principles. "People are stepping back and realizing that risk isn't what they thought it was," said David Ezekiel, president and managing director for International Advisory Services Ltd., Bermuda.

"For instance, workers' comp policies--who would have thought there would be the size of losses companies are facing from one event? This brings new issues into play." Workers' comp issues now being addressed include where employees are placed and how many employees are in one facility.

Captive managers believe risk managers will need to change their buying practices as well, by evaluating how much risk really needs to be covered and how much really needs to be transferred. "Some of it isn't obligatory," HSBC's Clark said. "If you've got a limit of coverage of $10 million and last year you had $20 million, and you bought the top $10 million because it was inexpensive--something you couldn't pass by. This year you may be happy with $20 million, but you'll live with the $10 [million]. So we're going to see a lot more of that, some because the price is too high, and some because coverage is not available."

Risk managers will need to concentrate even further in terms of capacity and pricing, re-evaluating their own business operations and how they were affected by the terrorist events. "People are thinking out of the box now. They had a lot more preconceived ideas of their exposure, and they will probably have a longer list of issues they never would have thought worth considering," said Cutts-Watson of Willis (Guernsey). For instance, he said companies would need to look more closely at their business interruption insurance, which won't be as generous in coverage as it was in the past.

"People will have to look very closely at issues of business interruption if they have a number of operations worldwide. They have to look at the risk they face from a lack of continuity and work out where they can actually handle the demands in other, existing operations, rather than just looking for a risk-transfer solution," Cutts-Watson said. One area where this will become increasingly important is in manufacturing, where just-in-time production can be seriously affected by the shutdown of even one plant.

Another area of concern for risk managers will be adequate risk modeling. "There is a lack of capacity in the market and when that situation exists, companies must look at their own retention strategy. And clearly, captives are a part of that strategy," said Clancy of Marsh (Dublin). But increased risk retention will require increased capital, and companies will need to evaluate the amount of capital required to take on the increased level of retentions in their captives.

Equally important, captive managers believe that the security and ratings of reinsurers--and those who protect the reinsurers--will have an impact on whether companies continue to place risk with them or move to alternative arrangements. "The losses from Sept. 11 are putting pressures on insurers and reinsurers, and some observers might have concerns over the security and continued viability of certain carriers," Clancy said. "In those situations, captive owners need to monitor their own reinsurance structures to ensure there is adequate security behind them at all times."

Likewise, purchasing reinsurance will be a major challenge for risk managers of smaller captives. "I think the larger captives who are able to retain bigger portions of the first-dollar losses will have a bigger array of reinsurers to access, because that's where most of the new capacity is being set up, to address the big-ticket items," Ezekiel said. But smaller captives, such as association captives, will have trouble finding the lower levels they need and will need to become more innovative, he said.

The fallout from these events also is bringing risk management a higher level of visibility, moving it from the risk manager level to the senior management and board levels. And the senior management levels are taking a more active role in trying to understand the risks and in developing mitigation strategies against them. "It was only the risk manager of a company that knew the markets were hardening. Now the president and [chief financial officer] know that's the case, because they see it on the headline news. There is no one in the industry that isn't aware this is happening," Clark said.

Looking Ahead

Some captive managers expect capacity in the commercial markets to continue shrinking, becoming more restrictive and expensive, yet stabilizing." I think the insurance market will come to an equilibrium in 12 to 18 months. I don't know where that will be. Prices might still be quite high, but I think you'll at least have certainty in terms of how much capacity is available and at what price," said Cutts-Watson.

To keep the overall cost down for their parent companies, captives will retain higher levels of risk through funding deductibles and may have to fill the upper-level gaps left by the commercial reinsurance markets. "You may also see the use of financial reinsurance behind the captives to help smooth the impact of those higher deductibles," Cutts-Watson said.

"There's no choice about having coverage," Clark said. "Companies with captives will probably have to take more risk into the captive than ever before. They've got the capital that has been built up over the years, and so they'll be the real tool that they were established for -- to tide their owners over in this difficult market." But interest in captives might wane if interest rates suddenly increase and insurers are able get better investment returns, allowing them to write business at lower premiums, he said.

RELATED ARTICLE: Protected Cells Gain Appreciation

The concept of protected-cell companies is gaining acceptance in the captive world. Similar to the rent-a-captive arrangement, protected-cell companies offer serveral additional benefits.

Among the most important differences between protected-cell companies and similar arrangements is that they legally separate the assets and underwriting accounts of participating cells from the liabilities of others. "The use of a separate cell for each separate project is quite attractive, because you can ring-fence those liabilities," said Malcolm Cutts-Watson, managing director for Willis Management (Guernsey) Ltd. A protected-cell company also is well suited for use as a special-purpose vehicle, an entity created for one particular transaction, or to structure investment products.

Another attractive feature of a protectedcell company is the low cost of entry, as forming one can cost much less than forming a captive. A protected-cell company also can be less expensive to run, making it attractive for small to middle-market players. "The concept attracts middle-market clients, who until now have been excluded from the captive sector because of the cost elements, such as the requirement of shared capital, availability of funds together with management and actual administration costs associated with a dedicated captive," said Granville de Cruz, senior vice president of Marsh Management Services Guernsey Ltd.

The idea for the protected-cell company was developed by Steve Butterworth, director of insurance for the Guernsey Financial Services Commission, after he attended a board meeting for a podiatrist association in the early 1980s. The association members were suspicious of other members and used individual contracts with the association's captive to protect their own assets against the liabilities of other members. "I commented that this did not seem a very efficient way to organize their affairs and asked whether there was any other solution such as a standard contract," Butterworth said. "The response, from a lawyer, was that short of some type of statutory protection, we would expect to continue down the route of individual contracts."

Butterworth unsuccessfully referred the statutory protection idea to Cayman and to Guernsey in 1987. Then in 1997, the Guernsey fund industry faced a similar situation with umbrella funds. Through the help of a local Guernsey lawyer, advocate Nik van Leuven, the first draft of the legislation was produced.

Butterworth's initial plan was to simplify and strengthen the rent-a-captive structure. "However, when looking at the legislation, we began anticipate other uses, both for insurance purposes and for the other financial objectives," Butterworth said. "We thought PCCs would be especially useful in cases where there are joint ventures with other international groups." Likewise, it was expected that specialist life companies could use protected-cell companies to provide statutory protection for the assets of high-net-worth individuals.

The legislation later was revised so protected-cell companies could be used for securitizations and other financial services, such as investments in intellectual property.

Not Just Bean Counters

The role of captive managers has changed substantially since captives were introduced. Originally, captive managers provided administrative services, such as issuing policies, settling claims and preparing financial statements for regulators. "'Bean counter' is the term that was used," said Clive James, managing director, Aon Insurance Managers (Guernsey) Ltd.

Today, greater reliance has been placed on captive managers to be more akin to business partners with the captives they manage. Captive managers now advise clients on domicile selection, program structure, pricing, risk assessment, underwriting and investment programs. "We try to add value for each client to make sure they are maximizing the use of their captive," James said.

"The term 'captive manager' is outdated. Now most of us are in the business of insurance management, and there is a greater reliance on us to help clients assess risk and decide if the reward compensates for the risk," said David Ezekiel, president and managing director for International Advisory Services, Bermuda.

Malcolm Cutts-Watson, managing director for Willis Management (Guernsey) Ltd., said captive managers now offer two services--captive consulting and captive management. Captive consulting would start at the front end by assessing what value a captive would offer, looking at risk financing and optimum solutions, working with regulators and forming the captive.

Captive management then handles the normal administration that needs to be done on a regular basis. But Cutts-Watson sees captive managers needing to continue adding value through strategic reviews to ensure that a captive is providing maximum value to shareholders and is working efficiently from an operational point of view.

What does this mean for the captive managers themselves? It means becoming a multidisciplinary team capable of working on all issues. "The type of captive programs are much more complex, and the issues captive managers are facing are also more complex," Cutts-Watson said. "Obviously, you need a good accounting knowledge and a good insurance background. But you also need the ability to think strategically with the client in terms of designing a program that's going to offer the best value."

Cutts-Watson said today's captive managers also need to understand what the insurance markets are offering in terms of risk transfer and pricing. "You've got to have an understanding of a whole range of financial services. A lot of clients are not looking at traditional risk-transfer transactions. They may be looking at some form of derivatives or mechanism to transfer risk," said Cutts-Watson. "Where a captive manager--and actually Willis--can add more value is the fact they can bring a broad range of practical skills to the table."

Some captive managers have branched out to offer solutions apart from the traditional captive structure, such as risk securitization, banking or treasury solutions, and asset securitization. For instance, Aon now offers clients the Aon Captives Share Class, a money-market fund in conjunction with Barclays Global Investors.

The new fund offers the liquidity that captives require, and it offers access to letters of credit on a cost-effective basis. "We are giving our clients efficient access to the Barclays expertise and to letters of credit," said Alan Cossar, executive director for Aon Insurance Managers (Bermuda) Ltd.

Dublin Is a Doorway to European Business

The differences between today's captive domiciles are relatively few, and the leading domiciles have several key traits in common.

The four leading domiciles, based on the number of registered captives, are Bermuda, the Cayman Islands, Guernsey and Vermont. Factors contributing to the success of these domiciles include a stable infrastructure, longevity of the captive legislation, flexibility from regulators in evaluating and approving applications, the industry's importance to the local economy and innovation in developing solutions for companies with unique insurance problems.

Today, the choice of where to set up a captive often comes down to some intangible preferences on the part of the decision makers. "At this point, the differences between being onshore vs. offshore are usually small," said Julie Boucher, managing director of Marsh Management Services Inc. in Vermont. "Sometimes it boils down to where they want to go for the annual meeting."

But for captives looking to write business in any of the European Union countries, Dublin, Ireland, is a prime candidate. Ireland, as a member of the European Union, offers captives the ability to write insurance directly on a freedom-of-services basis to any other EU member state, avoiding fronting costs, said Tim Byrne, managing director at Willis Management (Dublin) Ltd.

This gives Dublin-based captives a single point of entry to write business on a direct basis as authorized under the Freedom of Services Act. "We have a benefit, in that other traditional captive jurisdictions cannot write business directly into Europe, because they don't have EU membership," said Ian Clancy, managing director for Marsh Management Services (Dublin) Ltd. An insurer--captive or otherwise--not domiciled in an EU country would need a fronting company to issue the policies under the local regulations and then cede the business to the captive. So an insurer covering property in three or four different countries would need three or four local fronting companies. "A company from Ireland can draft the policies and issue them from Dublin, and that's acceptable under insurance legislation in France, Germany or any other EU state," Clancy said. "It's administratively simpler and cost efficient."

Dublin also has a large financial-services center known as the Dublin Docklands. "It was historically a run-down area that as a result of various incentives has been successfully developed into an integrated international financial-services center," Byrne said. "You have most of the world's largest banks, fund managers, international insurers and reinsurers represented there, working captive insurers and captive managers to provide a self-contained market for international business."
