The NAIC was founded in 1871 and has its headquarters in Kansas City. The group divides the United States into four separate geographic zones, northeastern, southeastern, Midwestern, and Western. These zones were created to help easily organize the NAIC's resources. Each zone has a chair, vice chair, and secretary. Each of these people sits on the NAIC's Executive Committee. The group holds three national meetings each year, in every season except for winter. Representatives and interested parties attend these meetings to learn about new and upcoming initiatives that the NAIC is pursuing. Sessions are also used to discuss, brainstorm, and review drafts, of new laws and regulations being pursued. Each meeting is followed up with notes in proceedings, being published in the Proceedings Of NAIC. 

The NAIC strives to achieve the goals of protecting the public interest, promoting competitive markets, facilitating the fair and equitable treatment of insurance consumers, encouraging reliability, solvency, financial solidarity of insurance institutions, and supporting and improving state regulations of the insurance industry. One part of what they do is that they assign an NAIC number to each underwriting company that provides insurance.
