BILL NUMBER:S2338 REVISED 1/30/13 TITLE OF BILL: An act to amend chapter 42 of the laws of 1996 amending the insurance law relating to homeowners' insurance and a temporary panel on homeowners' insurance coverage, in relation to the special advisory panel on homeowners' insurance/catastrophe coverage; and to amend chapter 136 of the laws of 2008 amending the insurance law relating to extending the effectiveness of certain stand-by powers of the New York property insurance underwriting association, in relation to the program designed to attract more competitors to the homeowners' insurance market PURPOSE OR GENERAL IDEA OF BILL: The purpose of this bill is to expand the charge of the already existing Temporary Panel on Homeowners' Insurance coverage (the Panel) to devote particular attention to the market dynamics in the coastal homeowners' insurance market and to review federal legislation, in addition to state legislative activities regarding catastrophe related insurance coverages. With the advent of Super-storm Sandy, the Financial Services Department should expand upon the number of tasks taken on by the Temporary Panel on Homeowner's Insurance to ensure that the homeowners market remains competitive and that consumers have more than one or two alternatives (if they have any alternatives at all) for obtaining homeowners' insurance, particularly if such homeowner's policy is canceled by their current insurance carrier.
