BULLETIN NO. 08-15
TO:
ALL INSURERS AUTHORIZED OR ADMITTED TO TRANSACT
PRIVATE PASSENGER AUTOMOBILE INSURANCE IN THIS STATE
FROM:
STEVEN M. GOLDMAN, COMMISSIONER
RE:
AUTOMOBILE INSURANCE PREMIUM SURVEY
All insurers authorized or admitted to transact private passenger automobile
insurance in this State are required to prepare and file on or before September 15 of each year
with the Department of Banking and Insurance (“Department”) an annual premium survey
reflecting premiums charged for specific automobile insurance coverages. Private passenger
automobile insurers are currently in the process of filing new territorial rating plans in
accordance with new rules and amendments codified at N.J.A.C. 11:3-16A, which became
effective February 4, 2008. Insofar as new territorial plans that will be implemented during the
next 12 months will affect an insurer’s private passenger automobile insurance rates, requiring
the preparation of an annual premium survey at this time would not reflect rates that will be
imposed under newly implemented territorial rating plans. Accordingly, the Department is
advising private passenger automobile insurers that an annual premium survey will not be
required this year.
