BI’s Article search uses Boolean search capabilities. If you are not familiar with these principles, here are some quick tips.

To search specifically for more than one word, put the search term in quotation marks. For example, “workers compensation”. This will limit your search to that combination of words.

To search for a combination of terms, use quotations and the & symbol. For example, “hurricane” & “loss”.

Oklahoma law caps state taxes owed by captive insurers

Reprints

OKLAHOMA CITY—Oklahoma Gov. Mary Fallin has signed into law a measure that would cap state taxes owed by captive insurance companies.

While there are no captives operating in Oklahoma, under S.B. 1617, which the governor signed Friday, any captives formed in the state would pay a maximum of $100,000 in aggregate taxes in any given tax year.

Oklahoma has allowed the formation of captives since 2004.
