Advocacy

On behalf of VCIA members, we thoroughly advocate for the legislative protection and advancement of captives in both the state and federal halls of power.

We annually meet with lawmakers in Montpelier and D.C. to raise awareness about the positive impact captives have. Should any critical issue arise threatening captives, we are ready to act.

Wait . . . What on Earth is Captive Insurance?

A captive insurance company is a wholly owned subsidiary created to provide insurance to its non-insurance parent company or companies. It usually relies on its service providers, like captive managers, lawyers, accountants and financial investors, to help establish and operate the captive. Captives are regulated by specific states called domiciles.
