OLDWICK, N.J.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–AM Best Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer
Matthew C. Mosher will deliver the opening financial keynote address,
titled, “Rating Agency Views of Regulatory Initiatives,” at The
Insurance Summit, on Monday, June 3, 2019, at 8 a.m. (CDT), in Kansas
City, MO.
The Insurance Summit, which is themed as “Where Innovation Meets
Regulation,” runs through June 7, and is hosted by the National
Association of Insurance Commissioners and the National Insurance
Producer Registry. The event brings together a wide spectrum of
insurance and regulatory participants, as well as industry innovators
and other technology incumbents to discuss the future direction of
insurance regulation. AM Best believes the increased pace of change in
society, climate and technology has made innovation increasingly
critical to the long-term success of all insurers, and in turn, the
rating agency recently released a draft criteria procedure, titled,
“Scoring and Assessing Innovation.” This draft criteria procedure is
available at http://www.ambest.com/ratings/methodology.asp.
Mosher will provide AM Best’s perspective at the summit on the most
pressing issues facing regulators and rating agencies, including current
and pending regulatory and market developments such as the rise of
insurtech and the bilateral agreement on (re)insurance between the
European Union and the United States. Other areas Mosher will touch on
include big data, data privacy and the integration of environmental,
social and governance factors into the investment process.
AM Best Director of Industry Relations, Government Affairs Paul Brown
also will attend the event. To schedule a meeting with him, please email [email protected].
Now in its fourth year, the summit will be held at the Kansas City
Marriott Downtown and feature session tracks on innovation, producer
licensing, antifraud, communications, market regulation and technology.
