Regulatory & Carrier Notes
Pennsylvania has recently adopted NAIC's updated Suitability in Annuity Transactions Model Regulation (“2020 Model Regulation”), with a 6/20/2022 effective date. It joins a growing number of states where the regulation is already in effect. Professionals submitting annuity applications in these states must comply with a Best Interest (BI) standard for annuity sales.
