About Us
Who We Are
At Captive Consultants, founders Clay Ogden and Ed Bryan bring years of hands-on experience helping thousands of successful business owners design and implement captive insurance strategies that protect their companies, preserve wealth, and create lasting value. Having worked extensively across a wide range of industries—from construction, energy, and technology to agriculture, professional services, and manufacturing—Ed and Clay have seen what works, what doesn’t, and how to build captive structures that stand the test of time.
Ed and Clay focus on delivering real-world solutions—not theoretical models. They work hands-on with each client, collaborating closely with CPAs, financial advisors, property & casualty brokers, and other trusted advisors to design captive programs that actually work in practice. By integrating seamlessly with existing advisory teams, they ensure every structure is grounded in sound underwriting, regulatory compliance, and long-term operational success.
Our mission is simple: to make sophisticated strategies accessible, effective, and sustainable—so our clients can focus on growing their businesses while we help protect what matters most.
