In addition to this overview of the services and expertise available in Cayman, this report offers evaluation of the overall health of Cayman’s captive industry. Perhaps one of the most interesting evaluations in this respect, comes from ratings agency A.M. Best.

In their evaluations of Cayman, contributors this report have in a number of instances offered fascinating predictions about the future of the market, including their thoughts on what the jurisdiction must accomplish in order to deliver a bright future.

External influences to Cayman’s captive market are also a theme of discussion. Legislative and regulatory developments such as Fatca and CRS have undoubtedly had an impact.  Also identified are key US Tax Court rulings, which have brought about opportunities in risk management, insurance and alternative risk transfer.

The Cayman Islands Report is filled with positive reflection on the jurisdiction’s position over the last 12 months.

It is our hope that report proves to be an enjoyable and informative read, helping to deliver another 12 months of success for Cayman’s captive industry.
