As businesses become more interconnected, captives are stepping up to support global risk management strategies. Captives are increasingly being utilised by multinational organisations to cover cross-border risks, offering tailored solutions that align with diverse regulatory landscapes.
This globalisation trend is accompanied by the rise of alternative risk transfer (ART) mechanisms, such as insurance-linked securities (ILS) and catastrophe bonds. These tools are enabling captives to access global capital markets, diversify risk portfolios, and improve financial stability. The use of ARTs also allows captives to address risks that traditional insurance markets might overlook, such as emerging climate risks or cyber threats.
Additionally, some captives are entering regions with significant growth potential, including Asia and Latin America, leveraging favourable regulatory environments and expanding insurance needs. By tapping into these opportunities, captives are playing a critical role in developing innovative risk solutions for a borderless economy.
