Captives





In 1986 Congress adopted section 831(b) of the Internal Revenue Code specifically to encourage micro-captive insurance formations to strengthen US businesses, and created significant tax incentives for doing so. These tax
incentives exist to encourage their formation where it is suitable for businesses to efficiently finance insurable risks.





Despite this provision being over 30 years old, most professional business advisers still do not understand Captives, and as a result, tens of thousands of small to medium sized businesses that could benefit from Captives have not
yet been introduced to them. In late 2013 North Carolina joined approximately 30 other states by becoming an eligible domicile for Captives, establishing consumer-friendly regulations in the process. We work very closely with the
NCDOI to implement these structures for clients all over the country.(http://www.ncdoi.com/NCCaptives/)


Deduct Up to $2.3 Million Per Year






An 831(b) Captive, as long as it’s structured and operated as a bona fide insurance company, allows a business to deduct up to $2.3 million per year against ordinary income…while the Captive – a wholly-owned subsidiary of
the business – receives the funds tax-free. It exempts, not merely defers, all operating income of qualifying Captives from federal income tax. This special tax benefit encourages small and medium sized companies to create
these protective risk reserve assets, which they retain control over.


The restrictions that apply to 401k and other retirement plan assets do not apply to reserves in your Captive. When properly structured, they simply are a superior business and risk management tool for owners of successful businesses.
And when integrated with estate and/or business succession planning, the wealth accumulation and protection benefits can be substantial.


Ideal Qualifications for an 831(b) Captive

  • A business with annual revenues of $1 million – $300 million


  • Pre-tax operating profits of $500,000+ per year


  • Desire to:

  • Decrease business risks


  • Leverage significant tax advantages


  • Increase ownership benefits, wealth accumulation & protection
