The webinar will review what agents, brokers, carriers and regulators need to know about regarding implementing the Nonadmitted & Reinsurance Reform Act, contained in the financial services reform bill approved in July 2010.
The surplus lines reform language mandates that beginning next July the home state of the insured will be the only state with jurisdiction over the transaction and the only state to which a broker must pay taxes.
