In this episode of Actuary Voices: Policy Update, host Ted Gotsch speaks with Katie Dzurec, the Academy’s director of public policy outreach, about key developments from the NAIC’s 2026 Summer National Meeting in Columbus, Ohio. The conversation explores how affordability, accessibility and trust shaped discussions across insurance practice areas, from rising health care costs and homeowners insurance challenges to artificial intelligence, climate risk and financial regulation.
Katie also highlights the Academy’s engagement with regulators throughout the meeting, work underway across health, life, property and casualty, and risk management and financial reporting, and what the Academy will be watching as the NAIC prepares for its Fall National Meeting in Dallas.
