Insurance industry regulations

Insurance industry regulations are rules designed to ensure companies operate fairly, maintain financial stability, and protect consumers. They require insurers to hold enough reserves to pay future claims, provide clear policy terms, and handle claims honestly. Regulators oversee these standards, licensing insurers, monitoring practices, and intervening if a company becomes financially unstable. These rules promote transparency, prevent fraud, and ensure that policyholders' rights are protected, ultimately maintaining trust and stability in the insurance marketplace.
