Texas Department of Insurance Names Rudnai as Captive Specialist

The Texas Department of Insurance (TDI) has announced the hiring of Robert Rudnai as its captive insurance specialist.

Rudnai is responsible for licensing and monitoring Texas-based captives and alerting businesses to the potential of starting a captive.

In 2013, the Legislature passed a measure allowing pure captives and requiring TDI to license them. At that time, Rudnai was among a handful of TDI financial analysts providing oversight to captives. He evaluated captive insurance license applications, met with prospective captive applicants, and developed relationships with captive service providers.

Rudnai, who has a master’s degree in accounting, rejoined the department after working in the insurance industry.
