2011 Multinational Pooling Network Matrix

Comments

Multinational pooling and captive benefit financing are increasingly important tools for multinational companies. By better leveraging your global purchasing power through pooling and captive arrangements, you can maximize cost savings for your employee benefit programs around the world and optimize nonfinancial benefits, such as improved service and underwriting.

Towers Watson's 2011 Multinational Pooling Network Matrix provides a complete listing of the eight key multinational pooling networks, their affiliated insurers across 168 countries and the offshore (TCN/Expat) capabilities for each. For each country, we have listed only insurers that can provide local admitted policies and products.

Towers Watson looks forward to continuing to help you maximize cost savings via your pooling and captive arrangements. As specialists in this field, and now with additional strengthened offerings around enterprise risk management (ERM), we are able to assist clients in all elements of multinational pooling, including:

1. Multinational pooling and captive feasibility assessment and implementation  
2. Global benefit funding strategy development
3. Performance assessments of current multinational pools and local funding alternatives
4. Ongoing management of pooling or captive arrangements — an area where many companies are looking for external help
5. Participation in our Captive User Group meetings, which have been running successfully for 10 years

We will continue to monitor changes in the pooling network members and be available to update you on any major changes that occur across the global insurance provider market.
