What must be included in the plan of operation adopted by the NCJUA?

The plan of operation adopted by the North Carolina Joint Underwriting Association (NCJUA) must include essential components such as the perils covered, compensation structures, and commissions. This requirement ensures that the operations are clearly defined, allowing all parties involved—insured individuals, insurance agents, and underwriters—to understand the coverage options available and how the associated compensation will be managed.

In particular, outlining the perils covered is crucial for policyholders to know what risks are insured against. Additionally, detailing the compensation and commission structure helps in establishing transparency and promotes fair practices within the association, making it easier for agents to understand their earnings based on the policies placed with the NCJUA.

While the types of policies available, claims handling processes, and minimum premium values are important aspects of insurance operations, they are not specifically mandated to be included in the overall plan of operation as crucial components in the same way as the perils, compensation, and commissions.
