The question every Owner/Operator asks before committing to something new.

Has This Actually Worked?

Yes. At scale. For sophisticated institutional clients. For nearly a decade.

This model has been tested. The results are documented.

This Is Not a Concept.

These are not projections built for a pitch deck. They are results.

10%

Average savings on total property premiums for a Large Public REIT. Over 8 years. WLP implemented the Primary Program for this client — one of the largest publicly traded REITs in the Washington, D.C. market.

28%

Projected savings on total property premiums for Private Development & Property Company. Program launched in 2025. WLP implemented both the Primary Program and the Tenant Legal Liability Program for this client — a well known Company operating for 60 years in the Washington D.C. market.

One more number worth knowing.

Programs That Work Tend to Stay.

Captive insurance programs in the United States renew at a rate of approximately 99%. That is not a coincidence. When a program is structured correctly and performing as designed, there is no rational reason to abandon it. The economics compound over time — loss history builds, the reserve matures, and the relationship with the excess carrier strengthens.

The first year is the hardest. After that, the program runs.
