AIG provides a complete range of captive management and consulting services including the structuring, formation, and overall management of captives with a unique understanding of each domicile’s regulatory requirements and local business practices.
In addition, we manage AIG’s own sponsored captives which are domiciled in Vermont and Guernsey. The sponsored captive is a form of “rent-a-captive” and offers a flexible alternative risk solution for clients, with the added benefit of a lower cost structure and reduced capital requirements compared to a standalone captive.
Our integration with AIG’s global fronting and alternative solutions teams enables us to provide a seamless, one-stop risk management solution for our clients.
What makes AIG the right captive manager for you?
- With AIG’s global footprint, we have the ability to set up and manage your captive in virtually any domicile or jurisdiction around the world.
- We provide in-depth expertise and capabilities through our full range of captive services, which include formation and management, feasibility studies, operational reviews, accounting and regulatory compliance, and redomiciliation analysis.
- As part of a group of insurance companies, we bring substantial local knowledge and practical experience of insurance regulation and effective capital management to optimise the use of a captive in a way that no other captive management firm can offer.
- We offer a convenient and secure online portal where captive clients can easily post and share corporate, financial, and regulatory documents, as well as access AIG’s extensive library of risk management information and safety training programmes.
