Open to other trade associations or Foundations whose membership and mission
is directly related to the interests of the property/casualty insurance, life
insurance, health insurance or financial services industries and who maintain a
current exemption under U.S.C. 501(c)3 or 501(c)6. 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 has created a special Associate Membership classification just for national
trade associations representing the property casualty insurance industry. As an
Associate Member, your organization will have special opportunities to participate
in ICNJ committee meetings, strategy development and industry events.
Since the organization's formation in 1977, ICNJ 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, Membership Directory and on the 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 $5,000 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.
