The National Association of Insurance Commissioners, abbreviated NAIC, operates the U.S. consumer insurance information database known as Consumer Insurance Search.
The NAIC is a standard-setting and coordinating organization for the chief insurance regulators of the 50 states, the District of Columbia, and U.S. territories. It is not a federal insurance regulator. Its databases and tools help consumers and regulators find information about insurers, complaints, licenses, and financial matters.
This distinction is important because several U.S. agencies are associated with financial protection but have different responsibilities. FEMA administers major federal disaster programs, the FDIC insures eligible bank deposits, and the SEC regulates securities markets. Insurance regulation in the United States is primarily conducted by state departments, with the NAIC supporting coordination and uniform practices.
