Insurance Journal
U.S. insurance industry trade
Insurance Journal is a trade publication for the U.S. property and casualty (P&C) insurance industry, operated by employee-owned Wells Media Group, Inc. out of San Diego, California. Its coverage targets insurance agents, brokers, carriers, and risk managers — not a general political audience — focusing on legislation, regulation, catastrophes, and market trends. Coverage of the Trump administration centers on industry-relevant impacts such as tariff-driven construction cost increases and FEMA restructuring, without a discernible political slant.
