Framing the issues for P/C insurers

The Property Casualty Insurers Association of America (PCI) represents 1,000 insurance companies that write about 40 percent of the business in the United States. They now have a new CEO and president. David Sampson comes to the PCI from the Commerce Department under the Bush administration, with a background in economic and public policy, including work with the Texas Chamber of Commerce. In late October 2007, Sampson sat down for an interview with Insurance Journal’s Andrew Simpson at PCI’s annual meeting in Boston to discuss how an organization as diverse as PCI forms consensus on challenging industry issues, such as terrorism insurance, federal solutions to catastrophes, regulation reform and more.
