Funding? How will highways be paid for in the future? Project delivery and financing
options continue to emerge. As do insurance options.
ARTBA has engaged Marsh to bring its contractors division members an exciting new group
captive insurance option, offering contractors favorable pricing, less price volatility, and greater
control over their casualty insurance program. What’s more, under this Marsh/ARTBA program,
members create a competitive advantage by making insurance a potential source of revenue
since the majority of premiums paid are eligible for a dividend in future years based on
favorable loss history.
