History

For decades, businesses relied on traditional insurance markets to protect their assets. It was the standard path—predictable, familiar, and seemingly sufficient. But over time, cracks began to show. Premiums rose unpredictably. Coverage became narrower. And worst of all, businesses had little control over their own risk management. They were paying more, getting less, and left with few options.

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.
