Providing Equitable Access to Auto Insurance

Dale Porfilio, Chief Insurance Officer of the Insurance Information Institute and President of the Insurance Research Council, and Vickie Kilgore, Assistant Vice President of the Insurance Research Council, join the podcast to discuss all things insurance. For decades, these organizations have provided timely research and valuable insights on public policy issues affecting the property-casualty insurance industry. One of their primary goals is to reduce the number of uninsured motorists on the road. In fact, a blog post published by the Insurance Information Institute in 2021 reported that U.S. drivers spent $13 billion in one year to protect against uninsured and underinsured drivers. Both Mr. Porfilio and Ms. Kilgore believe that through better education and data we can provide more equitable access to auto insurance and reduce the amount of money insured drivers spend protecting against those that are uninsured.
