The captive market has been the subject of some particularly
interesting comments during the last two years.
For example, in October 2007, The Journal, published by the
Chartered Insurance Institute, featured an article 'Capturing
Interest' which reported that there were some 5,000 captives
globally. In the same year, Andrew Tunnicliffe, group managing
director, business development, Aon Global Risk Consulting,
commented that the report, 'Global 1500: A Captive Insight
2007', published by his firm, 'shows that growth in the
captive market is not slowing down.'
