2023 Insurance Regulatory Summit

The premier source of education and technology for insurers and insurance partners

Sovos Insurance Regulatory Summit

The Insurance Regulatory Summit is an annual, exclusive event providing the insurance industry with access to regulatory experts and instructors. Our team of industry experts provide comprehensive overviews and training on accounting, regulatory and tax updates and the newest product enhancements that are set to impact the industry.  

Education sessions will be offered in an a la carte format this year with options for attendees to obtain CPE on Monday and Tuesday prior to participating in the product sessions which begin Tuesday afternoon.  Additional education offerings will run concurrently with product sessions for those that prefer an accounting-focused conference, while those who prefer a product-focused conference will register separately for the product sessions.

With more than 50 years of experience helping insurance professionals succeed, our regulatory team is known and trusted throughout the insurance industry. We are the premier compliance destination for information and emerging trends in tax, NAIC regulatory reporting and state compliance.

Good information that I was able to take back to my team!

Well planned event in a great location and a wonderful venue.
