Segregated cell companies constitute one of the fastest growing segments of the captive industry. Known by various names depending on the domicile (protected cell companies, segregated portfolio companies, separate account companies, sponsored captives, leased capital captives, etc.), these entities have a common but unique set of attributes and operational characteristics.  

Key course takeaways:

  • Explain the structuring and operation of cell captives, and their use in the alternative risk market 
  • Discuss taxation of cell companies and rent-a-captives 
  • Examine legal aspects of cells, including pros and cons of incorporated cells, unincorporated cells, and series 
  • Consider accounting aspects of cell captives
