Retention plan

Term · Insurance and risk management · MLC-T-INS-002930

A structured approach adopted by an organization to manage and finance its own risks and potential losses, rather than transferring them entirely to an insurer. This plan identifies specific risks, determines the level of self-funding for each, and establishes mechanisms for loss control and claims administration. It often involves a combination of deductibles, self-insurance, and captive insurance arrangements.
