Ep004: Captive Insurance Companies with Kevin Atkinson

September 2nd, 2021  |  59 mins 36 secs

Are you a business owner tired of making those premium payments for an insurance plan you don't have many claims on? Have you wondered what you could do with those dollars that aren't used for claims?

Today on the Premium Finance Show, we're talking with Kevin Atkinson, Founder and President of Montpellier Advisors, an independent boutique firm specializing in the intentional design, collaborative structuring, and focused oversight of captive insurance solutions for small to mid sized businesses.

The discussion goes deep in exploring the benefits of a captive insurance solution for many types of companies, and he shares some of his experience and perspective on why you should consider setting up an insurance agency of your own.

He is also a huge fan and advocate of Cool Springs' Prestige Design and how his clients are able to benefit from both captives and Prestige designs.

Ep003: Strategic Tax Planning with Jay Tompkins of Baker Tilly

August 19th, 2021  |  42 mins 18 secs

Today on the Premium Finance Show, we're talking with Jay Tompkins, CPA and tax partner with Baker Tilly's Private Client Services group.

Jay has been a tax professional for almost 20 years and has built a great rapport with clients from various backgrounds. In this episode, we have a great discussion about his tax planning practice, specifically on strategic and advanced planning for business owners and high net worth individuals and how that's different from just tax and accounting work.

We go in-depth on his view of the Cool Springs structure and why he's such a big advocate of it.

We also discuss why some “trusted advisors” like CPAs and financial advisors just can’t seem to admit that they aren’t equipped to provide guidance on the Cool Springs designs.

This is a great show with a lot of great information.

Welcome to this brief introductory episode of the Premium Finance Show.

My guests will be the types of professionals who our clients rely upon when addressing complex financial matters, including CPAs, corporate attorneys, estate planning, attorneys, bankers, and other professionals, and I'm really excited to bring this expertise to our clients and potential clients.
