The Insurance Issues Forum began as a thread on the Story Chat Forum of the Jackson Clarion Ledger. We grew to 35 pages of information and over 37,000 page views and became this blog – and Ground Zero for the Insurance Industry.
Newly elected Insurance Commissioner Mike Chaney announced Aegis Security Insurance Company will begin writing new policies in Mississippi.
We welcome the good news, Commissioner Chaney - and look forward to more.

Cowboy and I are ordinary Mississippians from Katrina Ground Zero who survived the extraordinary experience of being “slabbed” by Katrina. Promise came after the hurricane and adds the perspective of disaster assistance, Russell brings experience in financial services and FEMA to this important discussion.
I’m a construction specialized CPA by trade - otherwise known as "Sop81_1" on 3800 or so posts to the Yahoo Finance boards – and front man for this discussion of the importance of a properly functioning insurance industry.
Welcome. Look around, leave us a comment, and come back often.

I am sure he will be a little more careful then the last guy when reading the fine print coming from the insurance industry.
That sounds promising, very promising.
Let's hope so. I was just glad to have something positive happen for the people on the Coast.
He also opened an office on the Coast - something George Dale should have done immediately in my opinion.
Chaney's also one reason I don't get all rattled by attorney's contributing to Hood's campaign. Chaney took contributions from insurance agents, just not companies.
Most people here don't have the income to contribute to political campaigns - although we're the #1 one state on the % of our population making charitable contributions. I guess we can hope they pray for our politicians when they go to church - most of these contributions are to religious organizations.
That's another interesting dimension to Chaney btw - his sense of "justice" is rooted in his faith. I recall him taking a stand on an unpopular issue early in his first term as a member of the House - one that most Republicans opposed - and saying it was a matter of faith.
I didn't intend such a lengthy reply, Russell - but, then again, I don't recall another opportunity to comment on what appears to be good news about insurance on the Coast.
