National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC)

What is the NAIC?

The NAIC (National Association of Insurance Commissioners) is a nonprofit, non-partisan organization that sets standards, establishes best practices, and provides support for the U.S. insurance industry and regulators. Since insurance companies in the U.S. are largely regulated by states rather than the federal government, the NAIC and chief insurance regulators oversee the adherence to constantly changing guidance.

Why is the NAIC important?

Given that insurance products differ state by state, the NAIC helps coordinate regulatory guidance across the country. Insurers must file quarterly and annual statements to the NAIC to ensure the fair and equitable treatment of consumers, to support the improvement of state regulatory guidance, and to promote the financial solidity of insurance institutions.
