Consumer Participation at NAIC

The NAIC works closely with state insurance regulators to assist them in their primary objective of protecting insurance consumers. There are three ways consumers or consumer organizations can participate directly in NAIC national meetings and other deliberations.

*The NAIC defines a consumer organization as a national, state, or local organization that serves to protect the interests of consumers as they relate to the regulation of insurance. Their participation at NAIC meetings should represent a consumer perspective and should be based on their desire to collect and/or impart information of mutual concern and interest to insurance consumers and regulators. One measure of whether an organization represents a consumer perspective is its source of funding. By definition, an organization that receives significant funding from the insurance industry is not a consumer organization.
