The findings from that study led us to recommend that the dealer re-domicile its existing captive to the U.S. to focus on extended service contracts. When properly established, a captive is advantageous because it increases engagement from dealer leadership, ensuring more active risk management and control over cost, coverage offerings, and claims.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Next, we reviewed the extended protection plan terms and conditions and evaluated the claims history, going through each machine, line by line, to determine an appropriate pricing &amp; market strategy. As part of this effort, we worked to integrate the new quotes for extended protection plans\u2014including terms, coverage type, and pricing\u2014into the dealer\u2019s new customer relationship management software (CRM) system.
