WASHINGTON, D.C.–A National Association of Insurance Commissioners panel moved last week to break the logjam over the question of 100 percent collateral requirements for alien reinsurers, focusing efforts on a scheme to rate all companies in the same manner regardless of their nation of domicile.
The Reinsurance Task Force's move stunned and angered domestic primary and reinsurance industry representatives who feel solvency protection has been sacrificed for foreign interests.
The vote came at the behest of Maine Commissioner and NAIC President Al Iuppa, who felt the time was ripe to break through the rhetoric that has been echoing through regulatory forums for the past several years on the matter.
