Alternative Collateral

Alternative Risk and Alternative Collateral provides viable options for clients seeking collateral options and alternative underwriting structures to insure hard-to-place risks, particularly with large commercial accounts. Solutions include Cash Collateral, in which cash is posted by the client to secure its collateral obligation, and Collateral Trusts, which allows clients to provide qualified investments to secure its collateral obligation.

Features and Benefits
  • Cash collateral utilized for captive or deductible/retention insurance programs.
  • Collateral trusts utilized for captive, surety or deductible/retention insurance programs.
  • Collateral trusts may reduce frictional costs as compared to the traditional L/C and will not affect a client’s line of credit as a L/C does.
