Upcoming Webinars
Extensive loss history isn't always available when building an insurance model. However, a quantitative strategy and framework is essential. For this Pinnacle APEX Webinar, Principal and Consulting Actuary Aaron Hillebrandt will be joined by Luzern Risk’s Chief Marketing Officer Sam Espinosa to explore how forward-thinking firms, from risk-bearing businesses to MGAs and agencies, use captive insurance companies to launch, scale, and control insurance programs even in the absence of extensive historical data. Attendees will learn how to combine the right actuarial lens with innovative captive insurance strategy to turn uncertainty into strategic advantage.
