Did you really search for a ransom insurance business plan? This coverage may seem exotic, but in certain parts of the world, ransom and kidnapping are serious threats – especially for successful business people with global interests and/or a high public profile. But your clients don't need to be in the media or have a “public persona†in order to become targets. For business executives and their families doing business overseas, this is a legitimate risk to protect against. And for that reason, ransom insurance is seen as an increasingly important part of the overall risk portfolio. But what topics does your business plan need to address in order to get funded as a ransom insurance provider? Get started here:
• What available figures are there in support of this coverage?
• Will you have a specific geographic area in which you'll operate?
• What rates and terms will you be able to offer the insured?
• What agencies are most likely to underwrite the ransom/kidnap policies?
• Which marketing methods will you use to get new clients overseas?
The business plan needs to investigate the rate of ransom and kidnap even if at first it seems hard to come by the figures. You should look at competing business models and other providers (intermediaries and underwriters) and talk about other forms of protection insurance available to consumers – these are “second tier' threats to your business and you should not ignore them. You will also want to show a full management summary and a personnel plan that details five years of hires for your business (when and what amount). The financial section will show five years of key tables including revenue forecast, profit and loss, cash flow, and balance sheet.
