A look at the latest data from the NAIC
As it does every March, the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC) has released its annual market share report of the top insurers within various lines of insurance within the Property & Casualty Sphere.
The list is based on filings to the N.A.I.C. and represents the top 25 groups and companies based upon data reported on the State Page of the NAIC’s annual statement for insurers.
Since Agency Checklists has taken a look at the most recent data from the Commonwealth Automobile Reinsurers with respect to the top insurers within both the Private Passenger and Commercial Auto insurance marketplaces, we thought it would be of interest to our readers to see what are the top 25 commercial automobile insurers in the U.S. vis-a-vis the top insurers in Massachusetts.
