The Recreational Vehicle Dealers Association (RVDA) will host a free webinar on June 10 aimed at helping RV dealers better understand dealer reinsurance and identify opportunities to strengthen financial performance amid ongoing business challenges.
Scheduled for 2 p.m. Eastern, the 45-minute session will focus on how dealerships can use dealer reinsurance as part of their revenue diversification and long-term financial planning strategies.
The webinar comes as dealers continue to navigate pressure on profit margins, rising operating costs and broader market uncertainty.
The webinar will feature Brad Stanek, a Morgan Stanley financial advisor who works with RV dealership owners. Stanek will lead discussions on dealer reinsurance, including how dealerships can evaluate and manage reinsurance accounts to support business objectives.
Among the topics to be covered are the structure and function of reinsurance accounts, including explanations of “A” and “B” accounts.
The session will examine the role of A accounts as reserves for claims that require conservative investment strategies and B accounts, which contain earned-out premiums that may be invested for growth.
Stanek also will discuss when dealerships can transfer funds from A accounts to B accounts, as well as considerations for investing each account according to its intended purpose and restrictions.
The webinar is designed to provide practical guidance that dealers can apply immediately within their operations. Understanding dealer reinsurance can help dealerships maximize participation in finance and protection products while supporting broader business planning efforts.
Attendees will receive a complimentary reinsurance analysis intended to identify potential areas for review. The analysis will include what RVDA described as a personalized reinsurance roadmap, outlining gaps and practical steps dealerships may consider to improve outcomes.
“This webinar comes at an important time for RV dealers,” RVDA President Phil Ingrassia said in a press release. “With increasing focus on financial efficiency and long-term business stability, understanding dealer reinsurance is no longer optional for dealership leadership. Brad Stanek brings a wealth of experience and insight that dealers will find extremely valuable.”
The webinar is part of RVDA’s ongoing educational programming focused on business issues affecting RV dealerships and the broader RV industry.
