Lisle, IL, April 07, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, AAIS (the American Association of Insurance Services) launched a Pandemic Resource Center to provide timely and critical updates to insurance and regulatory leaders.
“The COVID-19 pandemic situation is quickly evolving and requires rapid response from insurers and regulatory bodies as they manage this ongoing challenge,” said AAIS General Counsel and VP of Government Affairs, Legal and Compliance Robin Westcott. “At AAIS, we’re dedicated to supporting our Member carriers by creating a trusted source for the updates they need.
