Funded self-insurance

Term · Insurance and risk management · MLC-T-INS-001616

A risk management approach where an organization formally sets aside financial assets in a dedicated fund to cover its own anticipated losses, rather than transferring the risk to an external insurer. This method provides a structured way to finance predictable and manageable risks. The fund's assets are typically invested to generate returns and offset future claim payments.
