(6:55) Ian discusses their type of market and talks about how important it is to have enough premiums and workers’ compensation. (12:54) Ian explains that, over the years, they have realized that hauling trucks and restaurants are not always the best group setting and still vary for certain industries. (16:03) Ian shares that they created a mutual fund for all clients in the captive that allows them to invest their last funding portion.

(44:30) Key Quotes: "This day and age in the umbrella market, it's sometimes hard to explain to clients and prospects what's going on, and how it is affecting their entire insurance program." - Ian Mayster "There is risk-sharing involved in the group captive here. But it's nice because that makes it true insurance, right? Otherwise, this would be self-insurance and you start to get into a whole different type of tax program structure." - Ian Mayster “It's often a lot more work upfront, but once they're in the captive, it's a pretty straightforward process. And we've got a lot of systems in place to make sure that they're happy, satisfied and serviced accordingly throughout their time in the program.” - Ian Mayster Resources Mentioned: Ian Mayster LinkedIn Captive Resources Cameron Pechia Thomas Comstock Ryan Young
