1st Look 2024: The MA Commercial Auto Insurance Marketplace
State of the Marketplace as of February 2024
Every other month, Agency Checklists publishes a bi-monthly “check-up” on the current state of the Commercial Auto Insurance marketplace. The data reviewed for this line of insurance is provided courtesy of the Commonwealth Automobile Reinsurers.
For those readers unfamiliar with the Commonwealth Automobile Reinsurers, “CAR” is the official statistical agent for motor vehicle insurance in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
The ultimate aim of these “looks” is to get a better sense of the trends and movements happening within this line of insurance. For our current update, the data reflects the state of the market as of February 2024, the latest date for which complete CAR data is currently available.
