More than 70 sessions at the National Association of Insurance Commissioners' fall meeting will cover updates to market conduct regulation, work on risk-based credit models and federal healthcare rules, according to a Nov. 9 preview from AM Best's News & Research Service. The preview's headline also lists investment discussions among the topics on tap.

Risk-based credit models convert a credit exposure into a capital charge, which likely gives the credit-model work direct reach into insurers' general-account allocations. A model that reprices one class of assets against another shifts the relative value of holding each.

For allocators and fund selectors, the credit-model sessions are the part of the agenda that touches portfolios. How a model treats a class of assets sets the capital an insurer must hold against it, and capital is what decides whether a position can be scaled. Asset managers marketing private-credit and structured strategies into insurance general accounts have a reason to track the fall-meeting output.

The meeting spans more than 70 sessions, with market conduct, credit models and federal healthcare rules on the list.
