The Property and Casualty Guaranty Association Act (Act), MCL 500.7901 et seq., requires the Director of
the Department of Insurance and Financial Services to annually adjust an insured’s maximum refund of
unearned premiums that constitutes a covered claim of the Property and Casualty Guaranty Association.
Section 7925(2)(a) of the Act, MCL 500.7925(2)(a), requires the maximum amount of unearned premiums
which shall constitute a covered claim to be adjusted annually to reflect changes in the cost of living. Rule

the ratio of the national consumer price index (CPI), as calculated by the U.S. Department of Labor, for all
items for March of each year to the corresponding CPI one year earlier, rounded to the nearest dollar.
By issuing this informational statement, the Director certifies that she has performed the CPI review and
adjusted the maximum unearned premium refund for the period from July 1, 2026, through June 30, 2027,
to $2,063.
