Changes debated for Wisconsin town mutuals safety net
A special study committee formed by the state insurance office is moving toward proposed changes in laws and procedures for Wisconsin town mutuals following the Martell Town Mutual collapse. The panel, including officers, analysts and examiners, aims to improve solvency monitoring, require surpluses, clarify assessments, and coordinate federal state oversight, while noting reforms may not have prevented Martell. The committee has met twice and will report early next year, with officials insisting responses will be timely.
