Insurance & Self-Insurance

Insurance and self-insurance pools face unique challenges, including:

  • Uncertainty of claim amounts and timing
  • Premium cycles that require attentive cash management
  • Cyclical swings in reinsurance availability and costs
  • Strong price competition
  • Coordination among internal management and outside actuaries, auditors, state regulators, and rating agencies
  • Requirement for capital preservation during periods of market volatility
  • Desire to simplify the investment process and minimize administrative overhead

With these objectives and challenges in mind, our asset management group helps insurance and self-insurance clients professionally manage diversified portfolios that are tailored to their individual requirements. One size "does not fit all.” Instead, our strategies are customized to each client’s lines of business, balance sheet and business goals.

Investment strategies are customized according to the distinct return objectives and risk tolerance of the self-insurance pool, and may include a combination of our managed portfolio solutions from cash management and tailored fixed-income portfolios to Multi-Asset class management approaches (which can include fixed-income, equity, global, and alternative investments).
