Return of the New York Insurance Exchange?
Yesterday's National Underwriter reported that Governor Patterson announced earlier this week at a dinner hosted by Lloyd's of London, that New York may reprise the long-defunct New York Insurance Exchange as part of New York State's financial services modernization campaign.
