Best books about Insurance Captives:
Since the Liability Retention Act of 1986 (LRRA) the use of Risk Retention Groups and Captive Insurance companies has been a great way for companies to access insurance as well as manage their risk. The Liability Risk Retention Act (LRRA) is a federal law that was passed by Congress in 1986 to help U.S. businesses, professionals, and municipalities obtain liability insurance which had become either unaffordable or unavailable due to the “liability crisis” in the United States.
These are some of the best books about Insurance Captives and Risk Retention groups and this part of the industry.
