What is A Captive?

• A captive insurer (or “Captive”) is a special-purpose insurance company formed

primarily to underwrite the risks of its parents or affiliated groups.

• It is classified as an Alternative Risk Transfer (“ART”) entity versus a Traditional Risk

Transfer (“TRT”) entity.

• Performs the same functions as TRT. It Issues polices, collects premiums, and pays

claims.

• It is formed to finance-underwrite the risk of its owners or related entities, which gives

those owners maximum control of their at risk dollars.

• A Captive traditionally supplements pre-existing risk management and financing

procedures.

• Does not offer insurance to the public.

• Regulations governing Captives are typically less onerous than those regulations

governing traditional commercial carriers

History of a Captive

• The history of Captives can be traced back hundreds of years to ship owners where

they would share, exchange, and transfer risk.

• Up to the 1950’s 100 Captives had been formed.

• 1970’s and 1980’s saw significant growth in the captive industry due to captive laws

passed in Colorado, Tennessee, and Vermont, and federal legislation making it easier

to operate similar interest captives.

• Tax Reform Act of 1986 congress passed IRC 831 (b) election for captive insurance.

• By 1995 3,200 Captives had been formed.

• In 2008 there were close to 6,000 Captives in existence worldwide, and more than

40% of all major U.S. corporations operating at least one Captive.

Current Captive Market

11

Profits and Trends

• Out of every $1 you pay as premium, roughly $0.60 goes to cover the expected losses, $0.40 for commissions & administrative expenses.

• The insurer holds that $1 and invests it, earning investment income.

• Insurers set up a reserve for future losses as a liability on their books, thereby deferring the recognition of income (and therefore income tax).

• With a captive, you can flip the situation so these advantages become yours.

How to Profit from and Insurance Company

Current Trends In the Insurance Industry • Carriers are tightening underwriting

standards.

• Increasing Premiums (hardening

market).

• New target combined loss ratio is 95%.

• 2013-2014 2%-3% Property & G/L

Increase.

• 2013-2014 5%-10% Worker’s

Compensation Increase.

What is Uninsurable Risk?

The fishermen know that the sea is dangerous and the storm terrible, but they have never found these dangers sufficient reasons for remaining ashore.

-Vincent Van Gogh Insurable Risk

• Boat & Building-Property

• Slips and Falls-Third Party General Liability Claims

• Staff and Employee Issues-Workers Compensation

• Profits-Business Interruption

Uninsurable Risk

• Toxic Sea or Pollution

• Over fishing

• Regulatory Body or Administrative Actions

• Loss of a Key Client or Market

• Anything That Keeps The Fisherman Up at Night

13

Managing Risk

Risk Control

The goal of the risk control techniques is

to reduce the frequency and severity of

losses as much as possible with the

resources available.

• Exposure Avoidance

• Loss prevention

• Loss Reduction

• Segregation

Risk Financing

If losses cannot be avoided, they could

occur; and they must be paid for. Two

options exist.

• Risk Retention

• Risk Transfers

14

Holistic Risk Management

1990’s Holistic Risk Management Trend or Enterprise Risk Management (ERM)

By identifying and proactively addressing risks and opportunities, business enterprises

protect and create value for their stakeholders, including owners, employees, customers,

regulators, and society overall. (ERM)

Captive Prospect Profile

Generally speaking if a company meets one or more of the following business criteria

they could be a candidate for a small captive insurance program:

• A closely-profitable business

• Pretax profits of at least $500,000

• Gross revenues equal to or greater than $5 million

• Stable cash flow

• Substantial self insured/ uninsured business risk

It is important to note field is very broad. There is not a one size fits all model every

Captive is unique in some way.

Captive and Estate Plan Strategy

• Estate and gift planning should be considered in tandem with a Captive Insurance

Company (“Captive”) strategy

Dolgin Law Group, LLC

Attorneys at Law 21

What is a Captive?

Must meet definition of “insurance” for tax purposes, (bona-fide risk management

purposes, reasonable premiums, and adequate capitalization)

Must be able to establish appropriate “risk shifting” and “risk distribution” (Helvering v.

LeGierse, 1941)

Dolgin Law Group, LLC

Attorneys at Law 22

What Is a Captive?

A Captive insurance company must be taxed as a “C” Corporation

Possible to create multiple classes of stock, vesting schedules, liquidation

preferences, etc.

Key employee incentives

Premiums paid are deductible as “ordinary and necessary” business expense under

IRC

162

Premiums will not be taxable income under 831(b)

Investment income will be taxed as ordinary income at corporate marginal rates

Dolgin Law Group, LLC

Attorneys at Law 23

What Is a Captive?

If the Captive is profitable, profits can be accumulated, distributed as dividends, or

paid out to shareholders upon liquidation

Dolgin Law Group, LLC

Attorneys at Law 24

Business Fit for a Captive

• Profitable ($500,000 or more in profits) businesses with uninsured risk

• Businesses where owner(s) are looking for asset protection, wealth accumulation

and/or wealth transfer

Dolgin Law Group, LLC

Attorneys at Law 25

Benefits of a Captive

Shareholders of Captives

As earnings accrue in the entity, the value of investment increases on a tax-

deferred basis

Distributions of dividends are currently taxed at favorable tax rates

Dolgin Law Group, LLC

Shareholders of Captives

As earnings accrue in the entity, the value of investment increases on a tax-

deferred basis

Distributions of dividends are currently taxed at favorable tax rates of 15% to

20%.

parent company-income insures to them

Definition of Insurance

Risk Shifting

Risk Shifting is established in a Captive by the payment of the premium in

exchange for the assumption of liability to make payment if the risk matures

Dolgin Law Group, LLC

Attorneys at Law 28

Risk Distribution

Case law has defined this concept as follows:

Risk distribution occurs when particular risks are combined in a pool with

other, independently insured risks

By placing risks in a larger pool and increasing the total number of

independent, randomly occurring risks, the business benefits from the

mathematical concept of the law of large numbers in that the ratio of actual

to expected losses tends to approach one

Definition of Insurance

Dolgin Law Group, LLC

Attorneys at Law 29

Case Law History of Captives

In Humana v. Commissioner (881 F.2 247 (6th Cir. 1989)), the Captive won a victory

This case involved a parent with a group of operating subsidiaries paying premiums

to a Captive subsidiary

The Court of Appeals held that the payments made by the subsidiaries would be

deductible as insurance whereas the payments made by the parent would be

disallowed, under the rationale of the prior decisions (Carnation Co. v.

Commissioner and Clougherty Packing Co. v. Commissioner)

The case established that brother-sister entities related to the Captive could legally

pay insurance premiums to the Captive and derive valid tax deductions

Legal History of Captives

After the Humana decision, the IRS set out safe-harbor rules

The IRS now challenges transactions they see as abusive on a “facts and

circumstances” case by case basis

Dolgin Law Group, LLC

Attorneys at Law 31

Revenue Ruling 2002-89

IRS safe-harbor if less than 50% of the risk insured by a single-parent Captive

(and the rest from unrelated parties)

Dolgin Law Group, LLC

Attorneys at Law 32

Revenue Ruling 2002-90

Single-parent Captive insuring 12 domestic subs of parent but no risk outside the

family

No one sub accounts for less than 5% nor more than 15% of the risk premium

Dolgin Law Group, LLC

Attorneys at Law 33

Revenue Ruling 2002-90

Held to be adequate risk distribution and the premiums deductible by the

paying entities

Although the IRS will not challenge situations where 12 subsidiaries are insured, it does NOT mean that you need 12 entities to have a valid captive insurance arrangement Dolgin Law Group, LLC

Attorneys at Law 34

Revenue Ruling 2005-40

The IRS continued to provide examples from which safe-harbor rules can be drawn

One example in the ruling shows that dealing with an unrelated insurance company that insures only the taxpayer cannot provide a deductible insurance expense because no risk distribution occurred

It also clarified that disregarded entities such as “single-member LLCs” would not be considered separate entities for risk distribution purposes

Dolgin Law Group, LLC

Attorneys at Law 35

Rev. Proc. 2002-75

The IRS said they will issue private letter rulings on whether there is adequate risk shifting and risk distribution to qualify the payor for an insurance deduction and to determine if the Captive is an insurance company for federal income tax purposes

Dynasty Trust

Using a dynasty trust is appropriate if the captive owner desires to pass the captive

via a trust not owned by his or her estate

The owner of the Captive will receive the benefits of the captive insurance company’s

profits and distributions. The current estate tax rate is 40% for estate assets in

excess of the current exclusion. Assume you have a properly structured captive

insurance premiums of $1,200,000, the estate and gift tax savings could be $480,000

a year ($1,200,000 x 40%).
