The National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC) has awarded Connecticut's George Bradner with the ‘Robert Dineen Award’.
Bradner is assistant deputy commissioner and property and casualty division director for the Connecticut Insurance Department (CID).
Established in 1989, the award is given to a state regulator “who has made an outstanding contribution to the state regulation of insurance”, according to the NAIC.
At its Fall National Meeting, the NAIC says, it formally recognised Bradner of Colchester, Connecticut, and three other state regulators who have made “significant contributions to state-based insurance regulation”.
CID commissioner Andrew Mais comments: “George Bradner has been integral not just to CID’s success, but to state insurance regulation across the country. He has selflessly shared his time and talent to protect consumers by helping to address some of the thorniest issues facing us as regulators, such as climate change, AI and flooding.
“In addition, George has been a vocal thought-leader on climate and resiliency issues, including garnering state participation in the industry-wide climate risk disclosure survey and being an advocate for strong resilience measures being put into place in Connecticut.”
