| Protecting
an organization’s assets is key to the survival
and continuance of ministry. This form of stewardship
involves being ready to handle crisis, hardship, and
loss.
Since 1979, the Risk Pooling Trust has
been a self-insured Church plan where Members "pool"
their financial resources in a trust fund and agree
to retain a portion of their risk within the Trust.
The Trust is not insurance, but an alternative to
traditional commercial insurance programs.
The Trust uses both self-insurance
and traditional excess insurance. Catholic religious
institutions and Orders are able to significantly
reduce costs while obtaining better coverages with
higher limits.
