Illinois
Illinois modernized its Insurance Code in 2018 to lower capital and surplus requirements and filing fees, making the state a more viable captive domicile. The state now allows captives to make loans to affiliates with prior approval and permits captive reinsurance pools. Despite having one of the highest GDPs in the US, Illinois has only recently become an active competitor in the captive space.
