Nonprofits in Alaska need better insurance options.
Nonprofits in Alaska have limited options when it comes to securing liability and property insurance.
Why isn’t NIA in Alaska?
Although NIA is registered to write liability policies in all 50 states, we are not currently writing polices in this state because no companion property coverage is available. State-based insurance regulation has been unable to resolve this market failure, so NIA is working with Congress to correct this.
In short: Some insurance regulators are more interested in protecting their own turf than seeing nonprofits get the insurance they need at prices that make sense.
