The Massachusetts Insolvency Fund is a non-profit, unincorporated association created by the Massachusetts legislature aimed at protecting Massachusetts policyholders and claimants in the event an insurance company becomes insolvent. All funds for the payments of claims by the MIF are generated by assessments on all insurance companies writing property/casualty insurance in the Commonwealth. Massachusetts law requires the participation of all licensed property and casualty insurance companies that write covered lines of insurance in the Commonwealth be members of the MIF.
The MIF Board of Directors is comprised of nine member directors. Mr. Skelly joins the Board of Directors as its only insurance producer representative. His appointment fills a vacancy on the board which is reserved only for an insurance producer.
