SRA emphasizes educating small and mid-size businesses how 831(b) plans can lead to self-reliance when the unthinkable happens

Monday, October 9, 2023

EAGLE, Idaho, Oct. 9, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- SRA 831(b) Admin is doubling down on its efforts to focus on taking an educational approach when it comes to helping small to mid-size businesses find a stable footing in their industries. The company's focus is the administration of 831(b) plans, which provide businesses with a safety net during times of uncertainty. Enacted by Congress in 1986, these plans, also called captive or micro-captive insurance, provide businesses with a tax-deferred incentive to set aside funds for risks that traditional insurance fails to cover. Though these plans have been around for decades, they have mainly been used only by Fortune 500 companies. However, since the pandemic, these plans have seen a surge in popularity. Recognizing that these plans appear to be complex in nature, SRA has produced a wealth of video podcasts to help explain to the average business owner how these plans can help them plan for the unexpected.

Key Points: 
  • The company's focus is the administration of 831(b) plans, which provide businesses with a safety net during times of uncertainty.

Autonomous Vehicle Reality Check: Widespread Adoption Remains at Least a Decade Away, according to S&P Global Mobility

Monday, September 25, 2023

SOUTHFIELD, Mich., Sept. 25, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- A world of self-driving vehicles and mobility-on-demand is likely to exist eventually, but for the next decade, widespread implementation of autonomous technology will not be realized, according to a new forecast from S&P Global Mobility. The report reflects findings from robust model-level forecasting that autonomous vehicle expectations have not been fulfilled and still face more headwinds – affording significant opportunity and scale to automated driving implementations in the interim.

Key Points: 
  • Now, S&P Global Mobility presents a more realistic outlook amid this moderated pace of progress while also publishing new data on the intersection of autonomy and mobility-as-a-service (MaaS).
  • "Their functionality also complements driving today rather than fully replacing the driver, making consumer adoption less of a challenge.
  • But S&P Global Mobility forecasters do not expect that to become widespread and broadly accessible within the next decade.
  • Automakers, suppliers, technology companies and mobility providers alike, however, remain committed to a future of safe and equitable autonomous mobility, even if it takes more time to get there.
