Florida Chamber of Commerce Cheers Property Insurance Reforms Bring More Insurers to State

FLORIDA, UNITED STATES, JUL 16 – Florida's legislative reforms cut litigation by 30% and added 14 new private insurance carriers, reducing reliance on the state-backed Citizens Property Insurance Corp. by 36%.

  • The Florida Chamber of Commerce says insurance industry reforms instituted in Florida two years ago continue to pay dividends, noting that more property insurance companies are entering the market.
  • In December 2022, Gov. Ron DeSantis signed SB 2A reducing litigation, while the Consumer Protection Coalition says these reforms are steadying premiums and reducing Citizens’ policies.
  • Since 2023, 14 new carriers have been approved to offer homeowners policies in Florida, while litigation has fallen by about 30% statewide.
  • Amid reforms, Citizens Property Insurance Corp. had 777,592 policies in June, a 36% decline from last year.
  • The state Office of Insurance Regulation said Florida Peninsula Insurance Co. will assume policies around Oct. 21, part of a depopulation program shifting policies from Citizens into the private market.
