History

For years, traditional insurance was simply the way business got done. Companies purchased coverage, paid their premiums, and trusted the market to protect them when losses occurred. But over time, that model began to break down. Costs climbed without warning, coverage became harder to secure, and businesses had virtually no say in the management of their own risk. Many found themselves trapped in a cycle of rising expenses and diminishing protection, with few alternatives available.
At Turley Penn, we saw this shift not as a setback—but as an opportunity.
We asked: What if there was a better way?
That question led us to captive insurance—a model that puts control back in the hands of the business. Instead of being at the mercy of the market, companies could now own their insurance, tailor it to their specific risks, and even benefit financially from strong risk management.
This wasn’t just a product—it was a philosophy. One rooted in transparency, innovation, and partnership.
The Turley name is one of the most respected in insurance throughout the Greater Philadelphia Area. With over 90 years of experience behind us protecting people, property and profits, we built Turley Penn Captive Partners to guide businesses through this transformation. We help them design, launch, and manage captive programs that are flexible, cost-effective, and aligned with their long-term goals. Today, more and more companies are stepping off the traditional path and choosing a smarter, more strategic route. They’re not just buying insurance—they’re building it.
And we’re proud to lead them there.
