PLANNING FOR GREATER GOOD
COMMITTED TO YOUR CAPTIVE’S SUCCESS
The financial service needs of some captives are limited to a
checking account and other captives need a complete treasury
management platform with integrated investment
management. Most captives either- do need or will need–
something in between. Understanding the financial services
needs of your captive and how those needs will change over
time requires experience.
All too often captive owners suffer start-up fatigue from the
heavy lifting required to open a captive. In their fatigue they
often follow a comfortable, or last minute, path to their local
commercial banker and in doing so they have a “one size fits
all” bank or an investment account, but they don’t have an
advisor who understand captives. They don’t have a member
of the team who can work with their captive manager, CPA, and
actuary to guide their captive. And as such, most of these
captive owners find themselves seeking the advise of an
experienced captive professional within months.
Make the wise choice your first choice, choose experience,
professionalism, and commitment. As your captive succeeds
and grows you will need a partner with the flexibility to
expand and the experience to know how to expand. Choose a
financial partner that has walked this path before and is
committed to your success. Wellspring Financial Solutions of
Raymond James is that partner.

BANKING SERVICE
Depository Pledge (Cash & Investments)
Generally this is the first financial services
decision required by captive owners. Most
domiciles require captives maintain
minimum regulatory capital. To meet that
requirement captives often deposit cash or
investments, in accordance with the
domiciles laws. Many captives needlessly let
these deposits sit un-invested or
underinvested. Wellspring’s experience can
work for you here.
Our legal department has vetted these
documents and we have established
expedited procedures for many domiciles,
including Tennessee, S.C., Vermont, to name
a few. These accounts can be opened and
approved by the domicile in hours, not
weeks.
Bank Accounts (Capital Access)
The banking needs of many captives
generally require flexibility, simplicity, and
reasonable cost over expensive complex
solutions that provide little to no benefit for
many captive. To that end, Wellspring has
worked with our affiliate bank Raymond
James Bank to make available banking
products focused on your captive’s needs.
Unique features include:
FDIC Coverage up to $2.5mm
Consolidated Banking and Investment Statements
Consolidated Banking and Investment Online Portal
Flexible Cash Sweep programs

Treasury Management Services
As captives increase in size and complexity its
not uncommon to find themselves needing
greater treasury management services. Our
Wellspring team has the expertise to provide
customized solutions to help you reduce
expenses, capitalize on revenue
opportunities, streamline your daily
operations, and reduce your risk of fraud.
Letters of Credit
Captives are often required to provide a
Letter or Credit (LOC). These LOCs often
present a challenge for captive owners and
managers. Whether needed for regulatory
capital or to support a reinsurance fronting
arrangement Wellspring can help you
structure a credit facility to meet your needs.
FDIC Coverage up to $2.5mm
Consolidated Banking and Investment Statements

Insurance Trust Agreement (Reg 114)
A Regulation 114 trust is an alternative to a letter of credit for the support
of captive insurance programs. Wellspring is experienced managing assets
within Reg 114 trust and utilizes several NAIC approved banks to provides
these trusts.
Investment Management
It’s important for any captive to maximize potential returns from its assets
while controlling risk. Wellspring offers a range of services from
comprehensive cash management to investment management. In every
case strategies are developed to meet the individual needs of each captive.
