Insurance is often disconnected from the rest of your Balance
Sheet & Treasury management..
Is your balance sheet efficiently managed?
You are often taking much bigger uninsured risks.
Don’t insure risks just because insurance is available.
The future is not as unpredictable as you think.
Our full healthcheck will demonstrate better ways to holistically quantify and manage corporate risk on your balance sheet, thus reducing your overhead costs to be more competitive.

Are your Insurance Claims actually Immaterial?
- In many client cases, insurance liabilities are usually immaterial to your total operations
- Current client example: insurance fund: £20m, total liabilities c£6,000m
- In other words, insurance claims are not material to their balance sheet
- Put another way, insurance claims are more predictable than they imagine
- This is also known as “Project Fear” (insurance for the unknown)
- By demonstrating that there are significant uninsurable risks which your operation takes
On a day-to-day basis (eg falling sales), insurance can be placed in its proper P&L and balance sheet context ie, only insure if material to your P&L/balance sheet objectives

Do you offer Insurance to your Customers?
- In many client cases, insurance is offered to customers e.g. extended warranty etc
- These liabilities are usually financed by an off-shore captive (with/without fronting)
- The captive’s liabilities/profits are consolidated back onto the parent balance sheet
- This is a risk-taking exercise, no matter how dressed up
- In these cases, we also see very low XS liability/property/motor covers bought by the parent
In these cases, there is usually inconsistency in understanding the overall impact on balance sheet volatility: SELLING (eg extended warranty) insurance to your customers should be a vital ‘input’ to your normal commercial (EL, PL, Property etc) insurance BUYING!
