Arizona Captive Insurance Association (AzCIA) serves as the official voice of Arizona's captive industry providing communication and resources to the United States and global captive community. AzCIA keeps its members up to date with the latest news and events, legislative updates, regulatory changes and other important announcements. Arizona Captive Insurance Assocation (AzCIA) was formed as an Arizona nonprofit on March 2, 2001. AzCIA was the first association in Arizona formed specifically to support, promote, foster and market Arizona as an attractive and competitive captive insurance domicile. AzCIA was involved in the early development of Arizona's captive-enabling legislation, Title 20, Chapter 4 and Article 14 of Arizona's Revised Statuses. This legislation, sponsored by Rep. Ted Carpenter, and enthusiastically supported by both AzCIA and the Arizona Department of Insurance, has paved the way for stable and progressive captive environment in Arizona.
