Description
NAIC is the organization of insurance regulators from the 50 states, the District of Columbia and the four U.S. territories. A state regulator's primary responsibility is to protect the interests of insurance consumers, and the NAIC helps regulators fulfill that obligation. That assistance is related to the regulators' shared objectives of financial and market conduct regulation. State insurance regulators created the NAIC in 1871 to address the need to coordinate regulation of multistate insurers. The first major step in that process was the development of uniform financial reporting by insurance companies. The NAIC staff provide invaluable support to insurance commissioners through its offices in Kansas City, Missouri, New York and Washington, D.C.
