Bryan P. Hudson, CPA, ACIHudson

Shareholder

Bryan began his career with Bauknight Pietras & Stormer, PA, in 1999 and became a shareholder in 2013. Bryan is a leader in the firm's property and casualty insurance practice, which includes commercial carriers, mutual insurers, captive insurance, reciprocals, and risk retention groups domiciled throughout the United States.

“The captive insurance industry is very specialized and also very attractive as a means to avoid volatile insurance costs and insuring risks that are unaffordable or not covered by the commercial market. Our expertise has made BPS a nationally recognized firm working with captive insurance companies and their parent companies.”

Bryan has expertise in statutory accounting practices and routinely consults with clients on financial reporting issues. He also leads the firm’s services provided under outsourced contracts from insurance regulatory agencies related to regulatory compliance and financial reporting.  Bryan often consults with entities that are considering establishing captive insurance companies, including feasibility, formation, and governance. 

Bryan was one of the first South Carolina Certified Public Accountants and is the only CPA in public practice in South Carolina to earn the prestigious Associate in Captive Insurance designation, sponsored by the International Center for Captive Insurance Education. 

“What’s rewarding about what we do at BPS is while businesses and industries are constantly changing, the need for financial audits, due diligence, forecasting, evaluations, and tax consulting and planning never goes away. If anything, it’s more important than ever.”

Bryan has been involved with a number of special projects, including business process documentation and best practices assessment, merger and acquisition due diligence, data mining, valuations, forecast/business models, software installation, and agreed-upon procedures. He is a designated computer audit and electronic data extraction specialist who routinely consults with clients.
