North Carolina Insurance Laws Passed Last Winter
The North Carolina legislature enacted insurance measures including fire insurance regulations, officer licensing, and tax provisions. The report notes salary fixes for state officials, shifts in postmaster and clerk roles, and the creation of several fire insurance companies under new capital structures. The law sets licenses at 200 for fire insurers and 350 for life insurers, with a 2 percent gross receipts tax and exceptions for assets invested in state bonds or mortgages.
