Mit der jährlichen Auszeichnung in dieser Kategorie würdigt eine Jury aus Risikomanagern die in der Captive-Beratung führenden Kanzleien Europas für ihre Arbeit im Versicherungs-, Gesellschafts- und Aufsichtsrecht. WILHELM erhält als erste deutsche Sozietät den Titel.
Unter dem Begriff der Captive werden verschiedene Formen der Eigentragung von Risiken durch Unternehmen zusammengefasst, bei denen das Unternehmen – allein oder gemeinsam mit weiteren Konzernen – eine eigene firmenverbundene Versicherungsgesellschaft zur Erst- oder Rückversicherung der Risiken der Gruppe gründet. Die Gründung und Verwaltung eines Eigenversicherers ist mit verschiedenen rechtlichen Anforderungen – zum Beispiel der Einhaltung von Solvency-II-Regeln – verbunden.
Das Team von WILHELM berät Captive-Eigner und -Entscheidungsträger unter anderem zur gesellschaftsrechtlichen Gestaltung von Captive-Lösungen sowie zu versicherungsvertraglichen und aufsichtsrechtlichen Fragestellungen im Risikotransfer. Auch in der Abwicklung von Großschäden steht das Team regelmäßig versicherten Unternehmen und deren Captives beratend zur Seite.
