NCOIL is a national legislative organization with the nation’s 50 states as members, represented principally by
legislators serving on their states’ insurance and financial institutions committees. NCOIL writes Model Laws in
insurance and financial services, works to preserve the State jurisdiction over insurance as established by the
McCarran-Ferguson Act seventy four years ago, and to serve as an educational forum for public policymakers
and interested parties. Founded in 1969, NCOIL works to assert the prerogative of legislators in making State
policy when it comes to insurance and educate State legislators on current and longstanding insurance issues.
