We support every aspect of the captives we advise, from claims advocacy to operational oversight, risk management, financial services, regulatory compliance, investment services, and more. In addition, Captive Resources has two subsidiaries: Kensington Management Group, Ltd., a full-service captive management firm, and Edgewater Actuarial Insights, LLC, an independent actuarial and management consulting firm servicing the specialized actuarial needs of the captive insurance industry.
