Now in its Second Year
A conference for the entire UK captive insurance ecosystem
Welcome to UK Captive Summit 2026, hosted by Captive Review in London on 15 September 2026. Now in its second year, this event is designed to help UK businesses unlock the power of captives amid a rapidly evolving insurance landscape.
A bespoke UK captive insurance regime is on track for introduction by mid‑2027, including reduced capital and reporting requirements and faster authorisation timelines. This renewed focus could bring nearly 700 captive insurers onshore, or newly established, positioning the UK to recapture a growing share of the global captive market (Financial Times). The global market for captive insurance surpassed $200 billion in premiums last year, according to data gathered by WTW.
So what does this mean for you? For UK-based firms, captives offer unmatched control over underwriting, claims, and capital, particularly as premiums rise and traditional coverage options tighten. With London’s deep insurance ecosystem yet lacking its own captive domicile to compete with offshore centres, this summit is critical to help professionals prepare: exploring domiciliation, structuring, regulation, and innovation.
Join us in London on 15 September 2026 to stay ahead of the curve, influence the future of the UK captive regime, and build strategies that capitalise on these transformative changes.
