Today is National Insurance Awareness Day. Although the origin of its designation is unknown, it is observed each year on June 28th to serve as a reminder to review your insurance policies and make sure your coverage needs are met and that everything is up-to-date.

Insurance provides financial security related to property, life and health matters. Over time, property values change, life and health situations evolve, small businesses grow, and natural disasters occur.

The day is an excellent time to not only review your current policies, but also to learn more about the types of policies that are available, and to do some comparison shopping.
