January 2012 Captive Insurance Company Reports (CICR) Highlights
CICR Subscribers: Click directly to the issue in IRMI Online or ReferenceConnect. If you don’t currently subscribe, order CICR direct from IRMI on captive.com's secure server! Following are the highlights of this month’s CICR.
The January edition of Captive Insurance Company Reports begins with "Insurance Issues and Outlook: 2012" (on ReferenceConnect or IRMI). Using statistics from the Insurance Information Institute, we present quite a few statistics about the economy in general and the commercial insurance market specifically. 2011 was marred by catastrophes, and their financial impact is highlighted. We present the four necessary criteria necessary to harden the market, including their current status. CICR weighs in on how this may affect captive insurers.
Our second article is an excellent primer on "Evaluating Domiciles--The Regulatory Environment" (on ReferenceConnect or IRMI). Written by two former regulators, they offer insights into how and why states become captive domiciles, citing the many differences that exist between the domiciles that affect how the domicile treats captives. The factors include operational differences, funding of captive department budgets, internal versus external staffing, and involvement in outside regulatory bodies. They then discuss nine factors one can use in selecting a proper domicile, concluding with a sample Domicile Regulatory Questionnaire.
