Strategic Risk Alternatives Origins Strategic Risk Alternatives (SPA) was formed to offer risk solutions to small and middle market entities by a team of insurance and finance industry professionals with over 40 years of combined experience. As the firm began to look at the captive insurance industry as a risk management strategy it quickly became apparent that many captives were, and still are, simply sold and created to take advantage of the tax incentives. These programs are often riddled with hidden fees, significant start up and maintenance costs, and a general lack of transparency. SRA decided to re-engineer the approach to captive insurance by developing a enterprise risk management strategy. This approach focuses on utilizing the 831(b) tax code as a risk management tool and considers the tax advantages a secondary benefit. SPA has differentiated itself by offering economical start up costs, a transparent and simplified fee structure, and consistent administrative support. New risk management strategies continue to be added to the SPA portfolio in order to help its clients further enhance the value of their products and services. 2 strategicriskalternatives.com

WE HELP BUSINESS OWNERS KEEP RISK IN CHECK 4 ENTERPRISE RISK MANAGEMENT Strategic Risk Alternatives’ goal is to mitigate the many risks facing business owners in today’s ever-changing climate. Addressing these risks properly allows owners to operate their businesses more efficiently.

Enterprise Risk Management In today’s ever-changing risk environment, it is critical for prosperous companies to develop a comprehensive Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) program. An effective ERM program should not only address tangible asset risks, but also intangible asset risks. It is essential to identify gaps that traditional insurance policies may have in order to protect against all potential risks a company faces. Another component of the program is to create a rainy day fund of tax-advantaged dollars. The ability to mitigate risks and build a tax-advantaged reserve is imperative to be successful through ever-changing climates. Types of Risks Identified ∙ Supply Chain Interruption ∙ Professional Liability ∙ Contingent Business Interruption ∙ Dispute Resolution ∙ Brand Protection ∙ Political Risk ∙ Unauthorized Access ∙ Tax Audit ∙ Food Borne Illness ∙ Product Recall 5 erm.strategicriskalternatives.com
