Total Cost of Risk: Looking Beyond Premiums

October 8, 2026 12:00 PM ET

Insurance premiums often get the most attention, but they are only one piece of an organization’s overall cost of risk. The bigger picture can also include retained losses, claims costs, administrative expenses, and the impact risk has on day-to-day operations. Join MJ for a practical discussion on how a Total Cost of Risk (TCOR) approach can help organizations better understand these costs and make more informed decisions about their insurance programs.

We’ll explore how organizations can look beyond premium alone and evaluate the balance between risk retention and risk transfer. Attendees will learn how large deductible programs work, the tradeoffs between lower insurance premiums and retained claim costs, and how to determine the approach that best aligns with their organization’s goals, financial objectives, and risk strategy.  Designed for risk, finance, and business leaders, this webinar will provide practical guidance for evaluating insurance program options and better understanding the true cost of risk.
