“Risk Strategies has helped us with insurance coverage for over 15 years. As our business needs changed, they immediately adapted and provided us with creative solutions which included a captive program and other self-funded programs. They have helped, in particular, in a big way with our Workers Compensation coverage. For example, we had a few bad losses which landed us in risk assigned pool. Risk Strategies helped us navigate out of the risk assigned pool and created a new program which was self-funded with a cap and yet had the potential of lowering our premium. This program has been a huge success!”
“We consider Risk Strategies as our partner who is looking out for our best interest, which they have. The team is simply outstanding. They are amazingly responsive, great to work with and we think of them as an extension of our company.” Neil Khub, Chief Financial Officer, Hallkeen Management
