The National Insurance Producer Registry (NIPR) board of directors appointed three new members for 2017:

  • Al Redmer Jr. – Maryland insurance commissioner

  • Elizabeth Kelleher Dwyer – Rhode Island superintendent of insurance

  • Larry D. Deiter – South Dakota insurance director

"Their combined experience and commitment to the U.S. regulatory insurance system will be a great benefit to the NIPR board of directors," says Roger A. Sevigny, NIPR board president and New Hampshire insurance commissioner of the appointments.

Bill Wilson, CPCU, ARM, AIM, AAM has launched InsuranceCommentary.com, a free educational web site that features a blog on P&C insurance industry issues. According to Wilson, the web site is a "source of relevant, timely and accurate insurance information, from coverage interpretations to expert opinions on industry issues."

Centerville, Ohio-based P&C insurance provider Norman-Spencer Agency, Inc. said Northern Star Management, Inc., acquired in 2014, will now operate as the transportation division of Norman-Spencer. Northern Star's specialty haulers, auto transporters, towing, and collateral recovery programs will now be part of the new transportation department.
