I also review captive insurer applications and insurers’ proposals for business-plan changes, assist with monitoring Nevada domestic companies’ financial condition, provide input on financial examinations, and frequently respond to inquiries regarding Nevada insurance statutes and regulations. Sometimes my proposals for revisions to Nevada's insurance statutes and regulations become enacted into Nevada law. I have developed reports for the Nevada Legislature and informational materials for consumers, and spearheaded the first initiative in the United States to publicly post insurers’ home and private passenger automobile policy forms on a State website. I actively participate on National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC) Task Forces, which have, at various times, included the Casualty Actuarial and Statistical Task Force, the Surplus Lines Task Force, the Reinsurance Task Force, and the Workers’ Compensation Task Force.
