US Focus 2024 launched!

The US remains one of the leading players in the captives market over the past fifty years, with a growing number of states opening themselves up for business and trying to attract captive owners, as you can read in the latest edition of US Focus. 

In this edition we look at the way that the market has evolved over the past year. 

We have one of our latest online panels, with leading industry figures discussing the state of the market in the run-up to the Vermont Captive Insurance Association’s annual conference on Burlington, Vermont. 

We look at one of the constant concerns of the captive insurance industry - recruitment. How can captives compete with other industries in attracting the retaining the best talent – and how can it beat others in getting the cream of the graduate crop? 

Dan Towle, the head of CICA, gives his views on where the market stands as we head into the second half of 2024 and we have a series of updates on captive domiciles from all over the US, from Utah and Vermont to Tennessee and North Carolina. We also go offshore to see where Barbados stands in the market. 

And we look at the IRS and its continued scrutiny – and litigation – of 831(b) elections, and the impact that has had on the smaller end of the captive insurance market. 

Stay on top of the latest developments and key market issues in the US captive insurance industry, read the 2024 digital edition now!
