Coming from a family of entrepreneurs, and as small business owners ourselves, we understand the hardships small businesses face.

Frequently Asked Questions:

What type of accounting is insurance?

The unique financial relationship insurance companies have with policyholders warrants special accounting principles known as Statutory Accounting Principles (SAP). Giersch Group has the experience to guide your business through these guidelines.

Is an insurance company's annual statement different than other companies?

Yes. Unlike traditional businesses, an insurance company's annual statement indicated its value as if it were in liquidation rather than continuing in business. Giersch Group's full accrual reports are more than numbers and offer suggestions on how to use the data towards higher profitability.

Do insurance companies file GAAP and SAP?

If the insurance company is a stock corporation, like most, accountants file both. Investors can get an accurate estimate of outstanding claims versus revenues. Giersch Group advisors have the expertise to walk you through this process.
