GCP Short: Beginning the LAUSD captive journey

Melissa Hollingsworth, Los Angeles Unified School District
Jim DeVoe-Talluto, State of Vermont

In this GCP Short, produced in partnership with the State of Vermont, Richard is joined by Melissa Hollingsworth, Deputy Chief Risk Officer at the Los Angeles Unified School District, who will explain why LAUSD recently formed a pure captive and how they look to expand it in the coming years.

We also hear from Jim DeVoe-Talluto, Assistant Director ofCaptive Insurance within the Captive Insurance Division at Vermont’s Department of Financial Regulation, who provides his perspective on the value of gaining internal buy-in, regulating fast growing and evolving captives, and the recent activity we’re seeing in the public institution and education sectors.

The views expressed are solely those of the individual and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of the Los Angeles Unified School District.
