The Wire: LAAIA Convention Recap, Eligible Insurers
LAAIA Convention Recap
Last week, the FSLSO team attended the Latin American Association of Insurance Agencies (LAAIA) Annual Convention in Marco Island, Florida.
FSLSO Executive Director Mark Shealy provided commentary during the Legislative Update panel. He shared thoughtful insights on the state of the E&S market in Florida alongside several other insurance experts.
Staff manned the FSLSO booth in the exhibit hall, where guests had coffee and chatted about E&S compliance. The hall was bustling with insurance professionals and fun exhibit booths.
Congratulations, LAAIA, on such an informative and interactive convention. We can't wait for next year.

Per the Nonadmitted and Reinsurance Reform Act (NRRA), surplus lines agents are also permitted to place coverage with insurers listed on the NAIC Quarterly Listing of Alien Insurers.
