Latest News:

The Agreed Order of Rehabilitation entered on June 13, 2024, terminated the conservation proceedings, and placed GIC into rehabilitation.

On March 1, 2024, Gateway Insurance Company filed its 2023 Annual Statement reflecting a risk-based capital ("RBC") ratio that triggered an Authorized Control Level Event in accordance with 215 ILCS 5/35A-25(a)(1). On March 10, 2025, Gateway filed its 2024 Annual Statement, which reflects an improved but still statutorily insufficient RBC ratio.

In compliance with the applicable provisions of the Code, and in order correct Gateway's statutorily insufficient RBC ratio, Gateway's sole shareholder Buckle Corp., LLC ("Buckle") submitted an RBC Plan ("RBC Plan") on behalf of Gateway to the Illinois Department of Insurance ("IDOI") for its consideration. With minor alterations, IDOI approved Gateway's RBC Plan on June 13, 2025. As to the corrective actions contemplated in the RBC plan, Buckle has secured capital commitments from investors totaling $20 million, of which $8.2 million in funding will initially be contributed to Gateway to support its RBC requirements and its resumption of business. The funding will be a two-step process. First, in exchange for a Surplus Note Debenture, the investors will pay Gateway $4.7 million. That transaction, approved by the Supervising Court, occurred on September 25, 2025, thus removing the causes and conditions which made the rehabilitation proceedings necessary. Second, upon a petition filed by the Rehabilitator, the Court entered an order, dated September 29, 2025, terminating the rehabilitation proceeding and closing the Gateway estate. The investors then funded the remaining $3.5 million.
