Registration Opens For Captive Conference
Self-insurance strategies to lift your company to a whole new level are the focus of the 15th Bermuda Captive Conference taking place June 10–12.
This year’s theme—“Elevate”—encourages risk managers to consider the many ways captives can contain costs and manage coverage, whether for a Fortune 500 corporation or mid-sized business.
“Our 2019 theme is an energising call to action,” said Conference Chair Michael Parrish. “We hope to connect with both risk managers who may not have considered captive insurance before, and owners of existing captive insurers to demonstrate how they can innovatively tackle new and emerging risks facing any size of business in today’s corporate environment. We’re inviting delegates to ‘elevate their perspective, elevate their network, elevate their captive’.”
Registration is now open at bermudacaptiveconference.com for the three-day conference—Bermuda’s largest industry event—that returns to the Fairmont Southampton with an agenda packed with educational sessions, keynote speakers, social activities, and networking events.
The conference, incorporating a trade floor showcasing support services and organisations, attracts captive insurance managers, brokers and service-providers, corporate risk managers, and captive owners. The early-bird registration deadline is March 31.
“We’re looking to build on the phenomenal success that’s been established over the past 14 years and we expect to have a strong attendance again,” said Parrish, adding the new conference website streamlines the registration process for sponsors and attendees.
“Our agenda will examine innovative programmes that can be developed in a captive, and topics will include cutting-edge issues such as insurtech, cyber security, autonomous driving, global employee benefits, and the shared economy.”
Last year’s Bermuda Captive Conference was hailed an impressive showcase of diversity and innovation by delegates. Notably, it attracted more captive owners and risk managers than ever before in the event’s history. More than 800 attendees registered from the United States, Canada, Latin America, and the United Kingdom, as well as Bermuda, driving total hotel room nights close to 1,000
The BDA noted that “Bermuda is the premier captive insurance jurisdiction, home to more than 700 captive companies generating about $40 billion in annual gross written premiums. The sector recorded continued growth in 2018, registering 19 new entities, according to the Bermuda Monetary Authority.”
