Variations in regional, geopolitical, macro-economic and industry conditions mean companies have unique risk profiles and risk management strategies. However, the hard insurance market has prompted a global trend and caused many to turn to alternative risk financing options - such as captives - to reduce their insurance spend.

And this trend is apparent in Aon’s 2021 Captive Benchmarking Survey data. The survey found an increase in captive use across most industries, with particularly pronounced increases for hard-hit lines such as property damage/business interruption, directors' and officers' (D&O) and cyber.

Reflecting on market conditions and with insights drawn from the survey, our experts provide their thoughts on global, regional and industry-specific captive insurance trends and the opportunities presented by alternative risk transfer.
