Captive insurance is a regulated form of self-insurance, in which the insurer is owned wholly by the insureds. It is organized for the purpose of self-funding the owners’ risks. Currently, Nevada, which is known for being a business-friendly state, ranks 4th in the nation as a domicile for captive insurers. Why is it so attractive? Among many contributing factors is its no personal or corporate tax structure and a readily available, knowledgeable and responsive Insurance Division staff. Nevada also offers a tax credit of up to $5,000 applicable to the first year of a captive’s acquisition of a Certificate of Authority. Find out more.
