Too Good to Be True? The Truth About Captive Insurance for Trucking

Tuesday, August 4 | 1-2 PM CST


If you've heard the pitch on captive insurance—dividends, pricing stability, control over claims—and thought it sounded a little too good to be true, you're not alone. In a market where commercial auto premiums seem to climb without end, bold claims about captives deserve a closer look.

Learning Objectives

Join Cottingham & Butler's Danny Badovinac, Andy Schmidt, and Jared Sweeney for a webinar that gets into not just what captives can do for trucking companies, but how—backed by real captive member data.


By the end of this webinar, participants will be able to:

  1.  Explain how group purchasing power works within a captive structure and why pooling risk among high-quality carriers creates pricing stability that the standard market can't match.

  2. Describe how the actuarially driven pricing model ties individual loss experience directly to premium, rewarding carriers who invest in safety and claims management.

  3. Identify the financial upside of captive participation, including how a traditionally fixed expense like insurance can become a source of profit through dividends.
