§ 56-13-401. Creation of special purpose financial captives.

This part provides for the creation of “special purpose financial captives” (SPFCs) exclusively to facilitate the securitization of one (1) or more risks, as a means of accessing alternative sources of capital and achieving the benefits of securitization.
