Open to other organizations or business enterprises whose mission, purpose and business objectives are the same as or similar to that of the Insurance Council of New Jersey. To be eligible, an organization seeking membership must be incorporated under the laws of any state. This class of membership shall have no voting privileges.

An associate membership in the Council is a powerful resource that will allow you to keep informed about developments in the Legislature, Department of Banking & Insurance and the media.

ICNJ is a trade association of property/casualty insurance companies whose purpose is to advocate industry views, work to impact the legislative and regulatory environment and serve as a source of timely and credible information about our industry. Since the organization's formation in 1977, it has built a solid record of service to its members. The media, public officials, consumers and most importantly, our member companies, look to ICNJ for the information and perspective to better understand and succeed in New Jersey's property/casualty insurance market.

As an associate member, you would receive copies of ICNJ publications and research reports, preference for participation in various ICNJ sponsored events, listings in the Council's Annual Report and Membership Directory and web site, and unique opportunities to interact with the association's member companies and representatives.

Because our member companies believe that the foundation and future of the organization is rooted in the active participation of the membership, ICNJ associate members are invited to participate in a number of active working groups. The groups meet via conference call or at ICNJ's offices just outside of the state capital.

Your associate membership also entitles you to receive the group's regular update on legislative and regulatory action in Trenton, and on activity that impacts the state's property/casualty insurance market. Every other week members receive N.J. Update, an overview of legislative action, media activity, regulatory issues and other information pertinent to our state's property/casualty insurance industry.

ICNJ also provides its member companies and associate members with unique opportunities to interact with senior officials from the Department of Banking & Insurance, the state Legislature and other governmental agencies. We meet regularly with senior Department officials including Commissioner Holly Bakke, Director of the Division of Insurance Donald Bryan and others. These meetings provide a unique opportunity to exchange ideas, concerns and raise issues on future and pending regulations.

If staying abreast of New Jersey's insurance market is important to your organization, an ICNJ associate membership would be of tremendous value. The application process is quite simple. Complete the below application form and forward it, and a check for $2,000 for a 12-month membership, to ICNJ as soon as possible. The Board of Directors must review all applications and approve them.

Collectively, ICNJ member companies underwrite 92 percent of automobile insurance policies, 65 percent of homeowners' insurance policies, 67 percent of workers' compensation policies, and 34 percent of the commercial insurance in New Jersey. We would welcome your membership and participation.
