TCIA to hold captive conference
The Texas Captive Insurance Association has announced that its first conference will be held on 18 and 19 February 2014.
Regulators, officials and captive experts from around the US will speak on captive topics at the event, which will be held in Austin.
Texas governor Rick Perry signed the state’s captive insurance bill into law on 3 June, allowing the formation of pure captive insurance companies.
Speaking at the time, Burnie Burner, a leading insurance attorney in Texas who helped negotiate the language in the state’s new captive insurance bill, said: “The state benefits from increased premium tax revenue, and jobs are created in Texas as opposed to other states.”
