"It's been a breath of fresh air to know that we're getting the right information, and have people who care working on our captive. The Luzern team has been fantastic."
"Our previous manager treated the captive like a back-office function. Luzern treats it like an asset."

"Luzern empowers us to work the way we want to work; seamless and flexible, with clarity every step of the way."

Warning Signs
Is Your Captive Working As Hard As You Are?
Underperforming captives share common symptoms. If any of these feel familiar, your captive may have room to grow.
You renew the same program every year
Annual renewal has become “check-the-box.” No one is proactively assessing changes to your captive structure or policies. The captive’s scope no longer reflects your current risk profile.
Gap between business and coverage is growing
Your business has grown or changed direction, yet you're still writing the same few lines. Coverage you need is unavailable or prohibitively expensive in the commercial market.
You're paying unnecessary fees
You might be paying for reinsurance or fronting arrangements that were necessary at launch but are now redundant. Tax planning may be outdated.
Capital is underutilized
Captives can suffer from too much trapped capital. Capital requirements are heavily domicile-dependent and should be assessed at each new chapter.
Your captive manager falls short
Delayed reports, recurring errors, unanswered questions signal deeper operational issues. By the time problems become obvious, the damage is done.
Claims not handled efficiently
Poorly handled claims are more expensive. If you can't answer "What's our average time to close?" the claims function may have slack.
Captive absent from strategic conversations
Your captive can be a source of innovation and competitive advantage. If insurance only comes up as a compliance item, you may be leaving money on the table.
