AI Regulation in the Insurance Industry: Impacts of the New York Circular
The New York Department of Financial Services (NYDFS) issued Insurance Circular Letter No. 7, which provides guidance on the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and External Consumer Data and Information Sources (ECDIS) in insurance underwriting and pricing. The Circular has significant implications for the insurance industry, especially in the areas of data governance, algorithmic accountability, and consumer protection.
DLA Piper's Kathleen Birrane, Zev Eigen, and Mike O'Day discuss the key aspects of the circular, the challenges and opportunities it presents for insurers, and the best practices for compliance and risk management.
