MIB helps its 430 member insurers verify the information that consumers put on their applications for life, supplemental health and annuity products. The Braintree, Massachusetts-based group does that partly by pooling application data from member insurers. Member companies can check to see whether what consumers put in new applications matches what the same consumers have put on other applications in the past.
MIB also helps insurers gather the statistics they need to comply with the new principles-based reserving rules.
