New York State Insurance Superintendent Francis Hendricks responded to Armstrong committee criticisms by outlining the department’s duties and arguing it should not micromanage day to day management of insurers. He notes the need to inspect solvency and compliance, compares state oversight to federal bank supervision, and warns that granting broader control would require major reorganization and large funding.
