Advocacy, Education & Community for the Risk Retention Group and Risk Purchasing Group Industry
Join the only non-profit association dedicated to supporting RRG and RPG professionals, industry leaders, and the service providers who partner with them.
About NRRA
The National Risk Retention Association (NRRA) is the leading resource and community for risk retention groups, risk purchasing groups, and the companies that do business with them. As the only non-profit and non-partisan trade association dedicated to serving the RRG industry, we defend the rights of RRGs in court, conduct targeted advocacy campaigns, engage with regulators, and represent RRGs before the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC). Our programs include regular educational sessions, an annual conference, and networking opportunities that unite RRG leaders, vendors, regulators, and commissioners. NRRA also works tirelessly to protect the preemption provisions of the Liability Risk Retention Act (LRRA) and has successfully prevented or redirected potentially harmful legislation.
What is a Risk Retention Group?
A Risk Retention Group (RRG) is a member-owned liability insurance company formed under the Liability Risk Retention Act of 1986 (LRRA). RRGs allow businesses or organizations facing similar risks to join together to insure against liability risks when traditional insurance is unavailable, too costly, or doesn’t meet their needs. This structure provides long-term, tailored coverage for diverse business sectors including healthcare, government, property development, and more.

The Value of NRRA
What value does NRRA bring to the RRG industry?
"NRRA has specifically been very supportive to me as a program manager by assisting with and providing an Amicus brief, used in responding for defense to a baseless complaint. Without the support of NRRA that would not have been possible."
“I really enjoy the interactive [conference] discussion sessions. There’s so much information available in the collaboration.”
“Meeting with various RRG owners and service providers specializing in RRG’s.”
“Great Networking.”
