  • (p54) – 1:34-1:41 – Bruce BRALEY (D-IA)Mr. Dinallo, I want to start with you.
    • Twenty-five years ago,I was a research assistant to Professor Alan Whitus, who was updating the Keeton and Whitus basic text on insurance law; and I think both Professor Whitus and Professor Keeton would be rolling over in their graves seeing what has happened to the industry that they were so passionate about.
      • I think you would agree with me that industry has changed radically in the 25 years that I’ve been talking about.
  • Eric DINALLO, Superintendent, New York State Insurance Department – Yes. In particular going from mutual companies to publicly traded companies.
  • Mr. BRALEY. And a lot of those demutualizations resulted in a significant financial loss to policyowners who owned the shares of those mutual companies-who owned the mutual companies and during the conversion in many cases were screwed out of their financial share of those companies.
  • Mr. DINALLO. I might not use the same verb, but I will agree.
  • Mr. BRALEY. I think you get my point.
