Appointed by the governor, subject to senate confirmation
Iowa Code 505.2 provides that the governor appoints the commissioner, subject to senate confirmation, for a four-year term.
2. The National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC) primarily:
Develops model laws and coordinates regulation among the states
The NAIC develops model laws and coordinates among state regulators but does not itself license or regulate insurers.
3. Before sitting for an Iowa producer licensing exam, a resident candidate must be at least how old?
18
The Pearson VUE Iowa candidate handbook requires residents to be at least 18 before sitting for the exam, and Iowa Code 522B.5 requires licensees to be at least eighteen.
4. Nonresident producer licensing in Iowa generally operates on a basis of:
Reciprocity with the producer's home state license
Iowa Code 522B.7 and 522B.15 issue nonresident licenses to producers in good standing in their home state when that state licenses Iowa residents on the same basis.
