Recognition in the captive insurance industry carries weight when it reflects more than visibility. It should signal sustained growth, strong execution, and the ability to help clients navigate complex risk and insurance decisions with confidence.
We are proud to share several important recent recognitions for Risk Management Advisors, reflecting the continued growth of our firm and the strength of the team serving our clients every day.
Most recently, Risk Management Advisors was honored at the 2026 Captive Review USA Awards in Chicago, where the firm received the award for Captive Manager of the Year <1bn GWP. The Captive Review USA Awards are among the industry’s most respected honors, with winners selected by a large panel of established captive insurance professionals from across the market.
For us, this recognition is meaningful because it reflects the work behind the scenes: thoughtful captive design, disciplined management, and a long-term commitment to helping clients approach risk more strategically.
The judges’ remarks help explain why this award matters. As noted in the client announcement, Risk Management Advisors was recognized for “impressive growth in captives and premiums,” “innovative client-focused solutions,” a “unique online education program,” strong industry visibility, and a clear commitment to professional development within the captive industry.
Those themes align closely with how we view our role. Captive insurance is not simply about forming an entity or replacing one insurance structure with another. It is about helping businesses gain greater control, improve alignment between risk and finance, and create more durable strategies for managing uncertainty over time.
Firmwide recognition matters, but so does the strength of the professionals advising clients every day.
We are pleased to share that Max Jong was named to Captive Review’s Power 50 list, which highlights influential leaders in the captive insurance industry. We are equally proud that Kevin McGinley was included on Captive Review’s Ones To Watch list, recognizing emerging leaders making an impact across the market.
Recognition at both the firm and individual level speaks to an important reality: successful captive management depends on experience, insight, and the ability to translate technical structures into practical business outcomes.
Rounding out this momentum, Risk Management Advisors was also recognized by Business Insurance as part of the 5th Largest Captive Manager ranking in 2024, 2025, and 2026.
That consistency is important. In a market where companies are facing rising insurance costs, tighter underwriting conditions, and greater pressure to manage risk more intentionally, clients benefit from working with advisors who bring both scale and specialization to the table.
Awards do not replace due diligence, and they are not the reason clients choose a captive strategy. But they can serve as a credible signal of market leadership, operational strength, and sustained commitment to client results.
For business owners, executives, and professional advisors evaluating alternative risk strategies, that matters. Captive insurance decisions often involve more than cost. They affect flexibility, capital efficiency, control, and long-term planning. Working with an experienced team can make a meaningful difference in how those decisions are evaluated and implemented.
We are proud of these achievements, but even more appreciative of the clients, advisors, and partners who make this work possible. Their confidence in Risk Management Advisors has helped fuel our continued growth, and we do not take that trust lightly.
As the risk environment continues to evolve, our focus remains the same: helping clients evaluate captive insurance and risk financing strategies with clarity, discipline, and a long-term perspective.
Industry recognition is encouraging, but what matters most is what it represents. For Risk Management Advisors, these honors reflect the quality of our team, the momentum of our firm, and our continued commitment to delivering practical, strategic value to clients.
