JLT PUBLIC SECTOR IDENTIFYING RISKS AND MANAGING THEM THROUGH INNOVATIVE SOLUTIONS
JMAPP
AT JLT, OUR CLIENTS TRUST US TO IDENTIFY AND MANAGE THEIR RISKS. TO DO THIS, WE ARE CONTINUALLY DEVELOPING AND EVOLVING INNOVATIVE SOLUTIONS.
JMAPP (Municipal Asset Protection Plan) is an innovative alternative to the traditional property insurance placement. A discretionary trust arrangement enables the administrator to combine the buying of insurance and spread the risk across Victorian and Tasmanian Local Government corporations involved in the programme.
JMAPP comprises over 80 Victorian and Tasmanian Local Government corporations and is designed for property damage type claims.
The programme combines the elements of a discretionary trust with conventional property damage/business interruption insurance.
The success of JMAPP is driven by the combined buying power and risk sharing of Victorian and Tasmanian Local Government corporations who support the programme.
The benefits of JMAPP include: • Ability to pay discretionary claims • Competitive and stable pricing • Security and long-term stability • Equity and rebates through unique discretionary trusts • Stable and trusted reinsurance partners that have stood the test of time • Return of surplus rebates and interest disbursements to members, meaning profits go to members, not insurers • Sector-specific member services • Capped financial trust with no additional calls on members
