Private reinsurance for retail.

Retail margins leave little room for underinsured shocks: a supply-chain break before peak season, a recall, a reputational event that empties the store, trade-credit losses. The Latitude Plan turns those quiet exposures into real policies issued by a licensed carrier and reinsured to a reinsurance company you own. Net of claims, the premium can build as reserves you control.

Policies are priced by the carrier against an independent licensed actuary’s formal assessment of your underinsured and uninsured risks. Treat this list as a starting point.

The brief

Premiums are recommended by an independent actuary and set by the carrier (roughly 10% of topline revenue is the benchmark across the portfolio), and generally expensed like any other insurance cost on your P&L; confirm treatment with your tax advisor.

Net of claims, roughly 85 cents of every premium dollar could accumulate inside your own reinsurance company after the flat 15% ceding fee, rather than funding a commercial carrier's overhead.
