NJAIRE 2008 ANNUAL LETTER - ABBREVIATED VERSION

 

By statute, as an insurer licensed to write Personal Auto in New Jersey, you are automatically a member of the New Jersey Automobile Insurance Risk Exchange (NJAIRE), and are subject to its requirements.

 

If your company doesn't write any such business, there are only three requirements you must satisfy:

 

A.  Submission of the NJAIRE Response Form (Exhibit 1).  The form has two response boxes.  Box 1 should be checked if your company expects to report no data for the 2008 account period.  Box 2 should be used if during the year you begin to write automobile policies that are subject to NJAIRE's reporting requirements.

 

Please note that this form must be received by ISO by February 15, 2008.  If this form is not submitted, quarterly statistics will be expected.  Failure to submit quarterly statistics on schedule will result in late submission charges of $50 per working day.

 

B.  Submission of the Statement of Compliance (Exhibit 2) by March 31, 2008 for the 2007 reporting year and March 31, 2009 for the 2008 reporting year.  It should be prepared on company letterhead, and sent to:

Insurance Services Office, Inc.

545 Washington Boulevard (17-8)

Jersey City, NJ 07310

 

C.  Submission of the Company Response Form (Exhibit 3) by February 15, 2008.  The contact person will receive all relevant NJAIRE communications depending on your company's reporting status.

 

If your company begins to write such business, it must notify the NJAIRE Central Processor and comply with the full set of NJAIRE reporting and financial requirements.  These requirements are contained in the NJAIRE Plan of Operations and the NJAIRE Procedure Manual.  These documents and other information about NJAIRE can be found at the NJAIRE website, www.njaire.org.  NJAIRE Central Processor staff is also available to discuss and explain these requirements.
