The new UK Labour government has signalled that it could be receptive to establishing a UK-domiciled captive regime. The London Market Group (LMG), with the backing of brokers, captive managers, insurers and AIRMIC, is calling for a consultation over the coming months to advance a framework to establish London as a leading captive centre, attracting international business and promoting growth. London's existing expertise in insurance creates a trusted and stable environment for new captive formations by UK companies and non-UK multinationals, as well as a skilled workforce, provided that the fiscal and regulatory conditions are favourable and competitive. France has seen significant growth in its captive market in recent years and the UK will need to act swiftly if it wants to avoid being left behind.
