The NAIC Research Fellow Program is designed to foster new and innovative research in the area of insurance regulation by providing resources to researchers working on projects in this field.

NAIC's Center for Insurance Policy and Research hosts this interactive celebration of insurance research and trivia. Join the editors of NAIC's Journal of Insurance Regulation (JIR) for an introduction to the journal, which publishes cutting-edge, high quality research on regulatory and public policy issues in insurance. Then help us celebrate the JIR's 2019 Kimball Award winners, who will briefly present their winning paper. Finally, compete for prizes and test your pop culture insurance knowledge in our trivia contest hosted by CIPR's librarians and researchers.  
Join us from 3:30 to 4:45 pm (Central) on Wednesday, Dec. 2, 2020.
