2021 Insurance regulatory insights: a regulator panel discussion

In the fifth webinar in our 2020-2021 insurance hot topics virtual series, Baker Tilly Financial Services Partner and Insurance Regulatory practice leader, John Romano, facilitated a conversation with regulatory and insurance industry professionals.

The panel focused on two key areas — the NAIC’s commitment to creating a diverse and inclusive workplace, and best practices for examinations in a remote environment. While the NAIC’s initiatives are still in their infancy, the panelists shared their perspectives on the NAIC’s goals for 2021. The panelists also discussed examination changes that have resulted from the COVID-19 pandemic, and outlined successful practices insurance companies have seen to help facilitate in a new, unconventional environment.

Key learning objectives:

• Understand NAIC’s Special Executive Committee on Race and Insurance five work streams aimed to amplify their diversity and inclusion efforts
• Review how COVID-19 has changed the examination process
• Learn successful practices that our regulatory panel has observed throughout the examination period during COVID-19
