GNAIE is the only trade association that focuses exclusively on financial reporting and accounting issues. The combination of U.S. and Japanese life insurance companies represents more than 50 percent of the world’s life insurance markets. The principles are an extension of an earlier draft submitted to the IASB last year. The paper focuses on the measurement of life insurance, annuities and certain types of health insurance for general purpose reporting; it does not include solvency regulation. (more) To influence the development of international accounting standards to ensure that they result in robust, high quality standards for insurance enterprises INTERNATIONAL ACCOUNTING STANDARD FOR LIFE INSURANCE PRESENTED BY PARTNERSHIP OF U.S. AND JAPANESE LIFE INSURERS April 18, 2006 –Page 2 of 4 Almost all life insurance and annuity contracts that qualify as insurance are included under these principles, as well as long term care insurance, disability insurance and other types of non-cancelable or guaranteed renewable health insurance contracts issued by either a life or non-life company.

  • 2019 Complaint Ranking Report
    STATE OF CONNECTICUT INSURANCE DEPARTMENT 2018 Complaint Rankings Accident & Health Auto Insurance Andrew N. Mais Insurance Commissioner August 1, 2019 The Connecticut Insurance Department investigates thousands of complaints each year from consumers on all types of insurance policies including health, auto, homeowners, renters and life insurance. Our primary mission is consumer protection and we closely monitor insurance companies to make certain they adhere to state laws and are financially solvent to fulfill their obligations to their policyholders. In 2018, the Department’s Consumer Affairs Unit (CAU) fielded 6,349 complaints and inquiries from consumers. As a result, we were able to recover and return nearly $5.6 million back to consumers who turned to us for help. Those complaints are an important tool in helping us regulate the insurance industry. Our CAU examiners are effective liaisons between policyholders and their insurance companies. They assist consumers by: • Ensuring companies comply with state laws and the terms of the insurance policy • Communicate with a company on a policyholder’s behalf • Correct misunderstandings and provide consumers with information • Work with policyholders proactively before a problem develops In this report, companies that sell Auto and Accident & Health insurance are ranked by the number of complaints reported, whether those complaints were justified or questionable by company, by market share, identified by written or earned premium. A company’s ranking is determined by a “complaint ratio,” which is the total number of complaints divided by the direct premium and multiplied by 1 million. A company with the lowest complaint ratio is ranked No. 1. The types of complaints reviewed for the purposes of this report include claims handling, underwriting, marketing and sales, and policy service.

  • 2019 Insurance Fact Book
    2019 Insurance Fact Book TO THE READER Imagine a world without insurance. Some might say, “So what?” or “Yes to that!” when reading the sentence above. And that’s understandable, given that often the best experience one can have with insurance is not to receive the benefits of the product at all, after a disaster or other loss. And others—who already have some understanding or even appreciation for insurance—might say it provides protection against financial aspects of a premature death, injury, loss of property, loss of earning power, legal liability or other unexpected expenses. All that is true. We are the financial first responders. But there is so much more. Insurance drives economic growth. It provides stability against risks. It encourages resilience. Recent disasters have demonstrated the vital role the industry plays in recovery—and that without insurance, the impact on individuals, businesses and communities can be devastating. As insurers, we know that even with all that we protect now, the coverage gap is still too big. We want to close that gap. That desire is reflected in changes to this year’s Insurance Information Institute (I.I.I.)Insurance Fact Book. We have added new information on coastal storm surge risk and hail as well as reinsurance and the growing problem of marijuana and impaired driving. We have updated the section on litigiousness to include tort costs and compensation by state, and assignment of benefits litigation, a growing problem in Florida. As always, the book provides valuable information on: • World and U.S. catastrophes • Property/casualty and life/health insurance results and investments • Personal expenditures on auto and homeowners insurance • Major types of insurance losses, including vehicle accidents, homeowners claims, crime and workplace accidents • State auto insurance laws The I.I.I.
