Captive Insurance Company
History of Florida Captive Insurance Law
Florida originally enacted legislation for captive insurance in 1982, which
created provisions authorizing the creation of U.S. domiciled captive insurers
by establishing operational criteria and standards. In April 2012,
Governor Scott signed
HB1101 into law, which augmented these provisions by further specifying
criteria for the formation, incorporation, coverage, capital and surplus,
reporting, licensure and reinsurance of captive insurers.
