To ensure our earthquake insurance policyholders are receiving the best product on the market, California Earthquake Authority (CEA) receives guidance and support from an 11-member Advisory Panel, made up of:
- Property insurers,
- Insurance agents, and
- Public members.
CEA Advisory Panel members are appointed for four-year terms, and advise the CEA Governing Board on important matters that affect our customers:
- Basic insurance-coverage issues.
- CEA's insurance rates.
- Long-term sustainability and survivability of the CEA.
- Availability and affordability of earthquake coverage.
