The International Center for Captive Insurance Education and the importance of education for the captive insurance industry
As we move into the new decade, it seems that even those in the captive sector are now being seen as a part of the ‘greedy’ financial sector and the bonus-driven culture.
I recently spent a week in our Barbados office and found myself wondering why this jewel has become almost the ‘forgotten’ Caribbean option.
Good intentions abound at this time of year, with many people resolving to ‘better’ themselves in a variety of ways (at least until the initial enthusiasm wears off) often by trying something new or giving something up.
Captive Insurance Database (CID) is the most comprehensive web-based database of captive insurance information.
CID gives users access to the captive name, parent company, manager, license date and captive type for captive insurance companies worldwide. Uniquely, the Captive Insurance Database also contains vital contact information for captive owners and sponsors. A powerful search engine drives the query and save functions which enable you to filter and store results by domicile, by captive manager, by parent company and many more.
Users will also receive regular alerts of all new data added to CID as it evolves.
