Our City & State P&C Insurance Summit Brings Policymakers and Industry Leaders Together in Albany
On February 4th, Big I New York and NY First partnered with City & State to host the P&C Insurance Summit in Albany, NY. With more than 200 policymakers and insurance industry stakeholders in attendance, the event fostered critical discussions on the challenges facing New York’s insurance market.
As industry leaders we remain committed to advocating for a strong, sustainable insurance landscape. By bringing together experts, decision-makers, and advocates, the Summit served as a vital platform for education and dialogue—because a state without insurance is a state at risk. We are proud to lead the charge in shaping a more stable, accessible, and affordable insurance market for New York.
In addition to DFS Superintendent Adrienne Harris and many policymakers, we want to give a special thanks to all of our industry leaders for sharing their insights.
