NAIC market conduct data coverage: key takeaways
NAIC reported 51 participating jurisdictions for Market Conduct Annual Statement data in the 2024 reporting year. MCAS helps regulators analyze insurer market conduct by jurisdiction and line. Its breadth is useful context, but it is not a survey of independent agency staffing, service speed, or quality.

- Compare only observations with compatible definitions and periods.
- Keep reported findings separate from derived arithmetic and local agency records.
- Apply the evidence limits before drawing a conclusion for one agency.

NAIC market conduct data coverage: what the current data says
NAIC reported 51 participating jurisdictions for Market Conduct Annual Statement data in the 2024 reporting year. MCAS helps regulators analyze insurer market conduct by jurisdiction and line. Its breadth is useful context, but it is not a survey of independent agency staffing, service speed, or quality.
A safe role design separates advice and authority from documented administration. Support staff can collect records, update systems, prepare work, and maintain follow-ups under written procedures. Licensed staff remain responsible for coverage discussions, recommendations, approvals, and any activity restricted by law or carrier agreement.

Frequently asked questions
Does MCAS provide a national agency service benchmark?
No. MCAS is insurer market-conduct reporting for regulators and does not observe independent agency operations.
Can national findings replace local evidence?
No. Use them as dated context, then evaluate local geography, lines, role definitions, and records.
What is the main evidence limit?
The cited populations and measures are broader or different from a single independent agency.
