CapVisor works exclusively with Insurance entities. Our unique business model seeks to avoid the inherent bias and possible conflicts of interest involved in “advising” and then also “managing” the assets of a captive. As non-discretionary advisors, we do not manage portfolios but rather help captives to implement customized investment programs or specific strategies.

Our tailored solutions often include investment strategy and guideline design, benchmark customization and strategic and tactical portfolio optimizations.
