Credit Life Insurance Under State Rules Soon
Missouri moves toward state regulation of credit life and disability insurance with a compromise bill. The measure would let the state director of insurance regulate commissions and premiums, potentially cutting premiums by up to 25 percent. Two controversial points were dropped: extending regulation to out of state firms, and deducting only the dollar amount of claims from revenues to set rates. The bill now heads to the House and Senate floors for final approval before Gov. Teasdale.
