DAS Insurance specializes in formation of wholly owned legal entities established by an individual or an industrial, financial, commercial or governmental organization or organizations to underwrite all, or a selection of, the risks of that organization and its affiliates. Such captive insurers are usually domiciled in a specialized location, and may be either onshore or offshore. Captives are formed for many reasons, including the lack of a commercial market for certain lines of coverage, the desire to recapture underwriting profits and investment income that would otherwise be earned by the commercial underwriter, or as a means to access the reinsurance market.
