NCOIL Backs Wider Risk Retention Act

The Task Force on Terrorism of the National Conference of Insurance Legislators has approved a resolution backing a move in Congress to expand the Liability Risk Retention Act to include all lines of commercial property-casualty insurance, except for workers' compensation.

Robert H. “Skip” Myers, who is spearheading the effort as special counsel for the Minneapolis-based National Risk Retention Association, said the support of the Albany, N.Y.-based NCOIL is important because it shows that “legislators at the state level that are most involved with insurance regulation endorse utilizing risk retention groups for commercial property and other commercial lines, particularly in view of the current hard market.”
