Admitted Insurance
Categories: Insurance, Incorporation, Bonds
Mainstream insurance lines. (Think State Farm or Allstate.)
Admitted insurance companies are regulated by state insurance boards. (As opposed to surplus lines, which are not.) The thing to know is that states will kick in cash to help admitted insurance companies that go belly up or are struggling to meet claims. They won’t when it comes to surplus lines.
