"I am honored to have been selected to the ABA's Captive Insurance Committee," said Dies. "The captive insurance space, specifically in the area of micro-captives, is undergoing major compliance changes and people will need to have the most up to date information in order to plan accordingly.

In addition to his extensive work in this area, Dies is also a key leader for alliantNational, alliantgroup's Washington, D.C. based office, where he counsels CPAs and their clients on other tax advisory matters.
