New York Regulation 187

NY Reg 187 graphic

Effective 2/1/2020, NY Reg 187 will require industry training for anyone selling life insurance in NY.  We recommend that you take the industry training through the RegEd website: https://www.reged.com/.  Please complete course #484_NY (NY Reg 187: Suitability and Best Interest of Clients in Life Insurance and Annuity Transactions) or #485_NY (Best Interest of Clients in Life Insurance or Annuity Transactions: NY Reg 187-1 Hour Course).  Once the training has been completed a certificate will generate – please upload this certificate to us using our secure portal.

Additionally, under the provisions of Regulation 187, many carriers will require product specific training, even if you are already contracted with them and have sold those products in NY in the past.

Please note that Reg 187 industry training and product specific training are pre-solicitation requirements.  Failure to complete the training prior to app solicitation will result in your application being rejected and any premiums paid refunded.

Below are links and additional information for carrier product specific trainingThis list will be updated as new information is available.  If there is a carrier you are planning to write an app with but do not see them on this list, please reach out to contracting and licensing for further assistance.
