WASHINGTON--The National Council of Insurance Legislators said its annual meeting next month will discuss ways to turn around the ailing economy and to map out a future regulatory structure for financial institutions.

A highlight of the event, to be held Nov. 20 through 22 at Hawk's Cay Resort in Duck Key, Fla., will be a panel discussion Nov. 22 entitled "U.S. In Financial Crisis: Where Do We Go From Here?," which will feature a group of financial experts, NCOIL said.

Rhode Island State Rep. Brian Patrick Kennedy, D-Hopkinton, NCOIL's president, said in a statement, "With stock prices plummeting, credit markets freezing, and the federal government investing in private financial service companies just to keep them afloat, state legislators are looking for the light at the end of the tunnel."
