How does your compliance measure up?
Ask yourself these questions:
- Would you like affordable access to captive insurance tax professionals with the technical expertise and industry knowledge to add value to the tax compliance function?
- Are you concerned about the new Schedule M-3 and electronic filing requirements?
- Are you certain that the necessary disclosures and election statements are included in your tax returns? Would you like to free up your time, and that of your staff to focus on issues beyond captive insurance compliance? Are you having difficulty justifying the cost of technology and other resources dedicated to captive insurance compliance?
- Do you need assistance with deferred tax calculations and disclosures? Would you like to hear about potential tax planning strategies that can be identified and generated through the tax compliance process?
