Managed by Innovative Risk Management (IRM), Elite Partners Insurance Captive (EPIC) is a heterogeneous insurance captive designed to provide its participants with control over their own risk management programs and insurance. Because membership in EPIC is not limited to a single industry, risk is diffused across a broader base, insulating the group from financial risk that can befall captives that are limited to an industry type. A commitment to safety and sound risk management practices is required in EPIC. The goal is to reduce the insuredsâ long-term cost of risk while protecting their resources, and most importantly, their profits.
EPIC operates at expense factors below those available in the traditional marketplace, thus providing cost savings and even profit potential to participants. EPIC is accessible through qualified independent insurance brokers. IRM coordinates services with the clientâs broker to ensure a customized solution that directly addresses the risks inherent in the clientâs business.
