Who regulates insurance in Arkansas

The National Association of Insurance Commissioners keeps a directory of state insurance departments (opens in a new tab).
Before you buy in Arkansas
- Confirm the agent is licensed in Arkansas.
- Ask about the free-look period. States require insurers to let you cancel a new policy for a refund within a set number of days, and your policy states the exact period.
- Ask whether the premium is fixed and whether the death benefit can ever decrease.
- Ask whether the policy has a waiting period. Here is how graded benefits work.
- Read the policy when it arrives and keep a copy where your beneficiary can find it.
