    • But I will say that the idea is somewhat intriguing since it would reserve the ultimate regulatory authority to the States for this reason.
    • As Mr. Iuppa said, the reason the NAIC came into existence was to try to create a set of uniform laws across the States for insurance. And those of us who attend the NAIC meetings four times a year see that with great fanfare they pass a model law, and then we all start placing bets on how many States will actually adopt it, and then of those, how many will tweak it their own little way.
    • So there is no model law. There are model ideas, but they never turn into model laws. So it is an intriguing concept.
