How hard is it to start your own insurance company?
how much capital do you need or are there companysthat will front the money
You need mega start up capitol. State regulate and license Insurance companies. They also oversee their operations with intensity.
You have to secure a Bond with your state as obligee.
This bond is a guaranty. against failing surplus. The Bond could be a Mill.
You also need proper financing and stock agreements if you either want to be a "stock" company or a "mutual" company.
Mutual companies are invested and owned by the policy holders. Every policy holder can vote on company issues.
As a Stock company ...based on your financial status and securities you issue stock options and people by stock sometimes thru the market or shares are issued amongst the "partners" depending on how much capitol they invested.
I would consult a Attorney specializing in corporate law. And contracts.
That's the best way to go.

If you are talking about selling insurance policies, it is not that money intesive, it is that it takes a long time to build up your client list until you are making a good wage.
If you are talking about an starting an actual insurance company, you need lots of money (to pay off claims until income reaches a certain level), and have to be approved by legions of government orversight agencies, including each state you will be operating in. It is an incredible undertaking that needs to be done by people who know what they are doing. If you have to ask how to do it, you shouldn't even think about it..

probably a million, but I would say much more than that. You have to be ready to pay out a possible $250.000 to each one of the people you are insuring.
My insurance would owe me one million if certain situations where to arise. Imagine having just 500 such clients.

If you don't know how to start one, and don't have a few spare millions sitting in the bank to hire the fleet of accountants, attorneys, and actuaries, you aren't going to be able to do it.

If you don't know the answer, you don't know enough to succeed. Good luck in your research or other business.
