Financial Structure


Charter Partners Risk Services is a mutual benefit company organized in Vermont. Vermont was one of the first states to support captives and its the premier state for captive legal, regulatory, and legislative support.‍ An insurance company requires a lot of smart people working collaborative to run smoothly. Our insurance company includes dozens of active members as well as hand picked insurance carriers, legal experts, insurance experts, and claims handlers.

Roughly 35% of all premium dollars are immediately paid to run the captive efficiently. This is a similar amount of expense seen in the traditional insurance market. 
The other 65% is placed into a loss fund, to be used for claims and ideally for distributions when claims don't happen!( regulated by Vermont Laws.) 

Investment Opportunities

Beyond the loss performance, the profitability and success of the captive depends upon income earned on the investment of assets. While there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to earn an investment return sufficient to offset potential expenses and underwriting losses, there are opportunities to grow premium dollars through smart investment.

Money from the loss fund can be invested under the Vermont Insurance Code, which stress diversification of risks and conservation of principal and liquidity, the investments of the captive are subject to the normal risks of the market, as well as risks inherent in the individual securities.
