Hear from a captive insurance attorney and captive consultants as they discuss the various considerations when choosing a domicile for a captive insurance company. Areas of focus include the quality of regulatory environment, favorable law and regulations, domicile requirements (resident director, annual meeting, examination schedule, etc.), and availability of qualified service providers. Other considerations to be discussed include ease of formation (or redomestication), geographic location including whether to be onshore or offshore, convenience factors, and domicile cost comparisons. In addition, a representative of the Florida Captive Insurance Association will discuss these same considerations as they look to transform Florida from a dormant domicile into an attractive and competitive domicile choice. The discussion will include an overview of the draft legislation seeking to reform Florida law in 2027.
Following this session, attendees will understand how to weigh regulatory requirements, costs, and access to qualified service providers when selecting or changing a captive domicile, and how Florida’s proposed 2027 reforms could affect that decision.
