In a shocking move, State Farm has announced that they will not be renewing over 70,000 insurance policies in California over the next year. This decision has sparked concern among consumers and state officials alike.
California Insurance Commissioner Ricardo Lara has labeled the situation as a “real crisis” and is looking into the company’s finances to understand the reasoning behind this drastic decision. However, Lara is also aware of the importance of keeping State Farm, one of the largest insurance companies, in the state.
While trying to navigate this challenging situation, Lara has come under criticism from the Consumer Watchdog organization for his handling of insurance companies. Adding to the turmoil, Allstate has also stopped issuing homeowners insurance policies to new customers in California in 2022.
To address this issue, Lara has put forth a plan that involves changing the models insurance companies use to assess risk more accurately. The goal is to lower rates for those who take measures to protect their homes, ultimately benefitting consumers.
For those affected by State Farm’s decision, Lara is urging them to notify the California Department of Insurance for assistance in finding alternative policies. As the situation continues to unfold, consumers are advised to stay informed and explore their insurance options to protect their homes and belongings.
