Summary

This bill would expand the sale of Colorado insurance premium tax credits beyond just insurance companies. The Department of the Treasury could sell tax credits to other entities that contract with the department. These entities would be permitted to transfer the tax credits once to an insurance company, but insurance companies would be prohibited from further transferring credits after receiving them. The measure provides a one-time transfer mechanism for tax credits between contracting entities and insurance companies.

AI-generated plain-language summary of the bill (from the OpenStates abstract — no full text available yet) — neutral, and may be imperfect.

Official abstract

In 2025, the general assembly authorized the department of the treasury (department) to sell insurance premium tax credits (tax credits) to insurance companies that incur state premium tax liability.     The act allows the department, following the department's application process for insurance companies to purchase tax credits from the department, to sell tax credits to other entities that contract with the department. An entity that contracts with the department to purchase tax credits may transfer the tax credits once to an insurance company. The insurance company is not permitted to further transfer the tax credits following the transfer to the insurance company.(Note: This summary applies to this bill as enacted.)
