How is GEM Different?

GEM is a pool of pools. We understand the nuances, opportunities, and the challenges that public entity pools face.

With a common bond of ownership, and a vested interest in GEM’s long-term success, members are fully aligned. They share a common vision and are supportive of their fellow pools.

What Does GEM Provide?

We are your single source for long-term, risk financing solutions. The breadth and depth of our unique combination of specialized resources helps members craft sound risk financing solutions for their pools that ensure their long-term stability.

By infusing GEM as a trusted part of your team, we protect you from the disruptions in the marketplace and let you control your own destiny in developing and executing upon your risk financing goals.

A unique combination of member benefits.

The purpose of GEM membership goes beyond reinsurance. Your membership provides the benefits of group purchasing, allowing you to access pricing and offerings that might be out of reach on your own. But members also have access to the exchange of ideas, tools and knowledge to best respond to market trends.
