2025 Program Marks 20th Anniversary of Bilateral Cooperation and Learning

This month, the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC) marks 20 years of the International Fellows Program and welcomes 10 foreign regulators, who are participating in the fall 2025 in-person session (Oct. 6 – Nov. 18). Fellows from Bermuda, the Cayman Islands, Georgia, Ghana, India, Panama, Saudi Arabia, and Thailand will be hosted by insurance departments in Connecticut, the District of Columbia, Louisiana, Nebraska, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Virginia for the fall 2025 program.
The in-depth program offers participants training at the NAIC Central Office in Kansas City, MO, where they will learn how insurance regulation works in the U.S. and how the NAIC supports state-based regulation. Participants will then work for five weeks at a state insurance department, seeing firsthand how states approach financial regulation, market conduct, licensing, and many other aspects of regulation. Fellows will finish the program at the NAIC’s Capital Markets & Investment Analysis Office in New York City, where they will learn how the NAIC keeps state regulators updated on investment risks and trends in the market.
The program fosters global regulatory collaboration and knowledge exchange through hands-on experience and training in U.S. state-based insurance regulation.
