Understanding Captive Insurance

Captive insurance is a form of self-insurance where a company or group of companies create their own insurance company to provide coverage for their specific needs. This model allows for more tailored and cost-effective insurance solutions, particularly beneficial for industries with unique risk profiles like cannabis.

Addressing Industry-Specific Challenges

The cannabis industry has long struggled with limited insurance options due to its federal legal status and evolving regulatory landscape. Traditional insurers often shy away from providing comprehensive coverage, leaving operators vulnerable to various risks. The new captive program aims to fill this gap by offering policies specifically designed for cannabis businesses 1
