Market Conduct Annual Statements (MCAS) scorecards. 

  • The MCAS provides regulators with a uniform system of collecting market-related information to help the states monitor the market conduct of companies. Currently, MCAS is used to collect claims and underwriting data on the Private Passenger Auto, Homeowners, Life, Annuity, Long Term Care, Health, Lender-Placed Home and Auto, and Disability Income lines of business. This allows regulators to identify concerns regarding claims and underwriting. 
  • MCAS Scorecards are produced each year to show the jurisdiction-wide ratio and the distribution of ratios for all companies filing an MCAS in a given jurisdiction. Individual company ratio information is available through the online MCAS application. A company may gain a better understanding of where they fit in the insurance marketplace and what opportunities may exist to improve their performance in a jurisdiction by comparing their jurisdiction-specific ratios to the scorecard for that jurisdiction.
