Common gaps
Most-missed Michigan compliance items
No-Fault Auto Reform
Michigan's 2019 no-fault reform requires agents to present and document all PIP coverage options to policyholders — including fee schedule implications. DIFS has issued numerous bulletins clarifying disclosure requirements, and exam findings on PIP counseling are common.
Cybersecurity (MDL-668)
Michigan adopted the NAIC Cybersecurity Model Law. Covered licensees must have written cybersecurity programs, conduct risk assessments, and report cybersecurity events to DIFS. Annual certifications are required for larger entities.
Annuity Best-Interest
DIFS adopted NAIC Model #275. Michigan annuity producers must complete product training, document best-interest analysis, and comply with carrier supervision. Exam findings have focused on producers who recommend indexed annuities without adequate documentation.
Surplus Lines Filing
Michigan surplus lines producers must file with the Michigan Surplus Lines Association (MSLA). DIFS has increased scrutiny of diligent-search documentation as the surplus lines market grows in commercial lines.
