Convenience Stores

High foot traffic, cash handling and fuel operations create a risk profile few standard policies fit well.


Why convenience stores businesses form captives

Convenience store operators deal with high foot traffic, cash handling and, often, fuel operations, a combination that produces a steady frequency of small and mid size claims that a captive can fund more efficiently than a guaranteed cost policy.

Risk categories a captive can fund

Every captive is built around the risk a specific business actually carries, not a generic policy.

  • Workers compensation

    A frequent, predictable category well suited to a funded retention.

  • Crime and robbery

    Coverage for cash handling and after hours exposure.

  • Slip and fall liability

    The most common claim type in a high traffic retail environment.
