Eryn Brasovan, Jeff Simpson to Present at World Captive Forum

Womble Bond Dickinson partners Eryn Brasovan and Jeff Simpson are slated to present at the World Captive Forum conference in Orlando, FL, February 4 – 6, 2026. 

On Wednesday, February 4, Eryn will present “Networking, Professional Development and Captive Career Pathways for Young Professionals”, which explores the strategies and tools used for newer captive professionals in order to expedite the learning process, build a distribution channel, and succeed in the captive insurance industry. 

The session will outline the recommended designations, conferences, and professional development opportunities for newer professionals entering the space, and attendees will be able to identify additional resources to expand their network and captive insurance knowledge.

On Thursday, February 5, Jeff will present “Single-Parent vs. Group Captives: Choosing the Right Structure for Your Risk Strategy”. As captive utilization continues to expand across industries, organizations are increasingly faced with a critical strategic choice: Is a single-parent captive or a group captive the better fit for our risk, capital, and long-term goals? This session brings together a captive program representative and advisors for a practical, comparative discussion designed to help attendees navigate this decision with clarity.

During the session, panelists will unpack the core differences between single-parent and group captive models—including governance, capitalization, risk homogeneity, and regulatory considerations—along with the operational realities of each model. Whether exploring a first-time captive solution or reassessing an existing program, this session will equip attendees with the framework to determine the captive structure that best supports their organization’s risk financing future.
