 STATE OF NEW YORK
 ________________________________________________________________________

 5046

 2025-2026 Regular Sessions

 IN SENATE

 February 18, 2025
 ___________

 Introduced by Sens. BAILEY, SKOUFIS -- read twice and ordered printed,
 and when printed to be committed to the Committee on Insurance

 AN ACT to amend the insurance law, in relation to establishing the
 interstate insurance product regulation compact to regulate certain
 insurance products

 The People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and Assem-
 bly, do enact as follows:

 1 Section 1. Legislative findings and intent. An interstate compact is
 2 a contract between the states that allows them to cooperate on multi-
 3 state or national issues while still retaining state control. Interstate
 4 compacts are specifically mentioned in the U.S. Constitution and have
 5 been historically used to address border disputes and water rights. The
 6 use of interstate compacts has expanded significantly in recent decades
 7 to cover tax, motor vehicle licensing, environmental, emergency manage-
 8 ment and other issues. Over 200 interstate compacts currently exist, and
 9 on average every state belongs to at least 25 compacts. The Interstate
 10 Insurance Product Regulation Compact, which to date has been adopted by
 11 44 member states, representing approximately two-thirds of the premium
 12 volume in the nation, created the Interstate Insurance Product Regu-
 13 lation Commission (IIPRC). The IIPRC provides the States with a vehicle
 14 to (1) develop uniform national product standards that will afford a
 15 high level of protection to consumers of life insurance, annuities,
 16 disability income and long-term care insurance products; (2) establish a
 17 central point of filing for these insurance products; and (3) thoroughly
 18 review product filings and make regulatory decisions according to the
 19 uniform product standards. The IIPRC is an important modernization
 20 initiative that benefits state insurance regulators, consumers, and the
 21 insurance industry. The Compact enhances the efficiency and effective-
 22 ness of the way insurance products are filed, reviewed, and approved
 23 allowing insurance customers to have faster access to competitive insur-
 24 ance products in an ever-changing global marketplace. The Compact

 S. 5046 2

 4 uct Regulation Compact and Commission.
