HSP to Team with USA Risk Group on Captive Management and Related Services 

NEW YORK, NY, and BARRE, VT, June 23, 2016 - Hanover Stone Partners, a risk management services firm with expertise in a broad range of critical risk disciplines, and USA Risk Group, the world's leading independent captive management firm, have agreed to collaborate on captive management, governance and related services to help businesses and other commercial entities with the full range of their alternative risk financing activities, including using captives to self-fund U.S. employee benefits.

Kelly, managing partner, Hanover Stone Partners. "USA Risk Group gives us a world-class partner, enabling us to address a key strategic objective to help clients widen their use of captives to fund employee benefits along with all aspects of their captive insurance planning, management, program development, and governance."

"Hanover Stone Partners brings an unparalleled network of senior insurance professionals, former regulators, actuarial and risk consulting professionals that deepen our capabilities and complement the range of captive and alternative risk services we already offer clients.
