2013 State Specialists

The Demotech Company Classification System categorizes insurers into one of eleven categories based on an analysis of data reported by the companies to the National Association of Insurance Commissioners.  The eleven categories that comprise the system are Nationals, Near Nationals, Super Regionals, Regionals, State Specialists, Coverage Specialists, Strategic Subsidiaries, Risk Retention Groups, Surplus Lines Carriers, Reinsurers and Companies with less than $1 million in direct written premium.
