The insurance giant I once worked for also has a wholly-owned subsidiary in New York. This is probably a common tactic for coping with the ...quirky New York law concerning "No insurance company can sell insurance in our state unless you incorporate in our state."

I know something about the history of the insurance giant I worked for. I know that their success has a lot to do with one of the founders having been a lawyer by trade and making strategic choices concerning things like where to found their headquarters.

I have trouble fathoming doing something less strategic while hoping to break into such a highly regulated industry, basically.

Anyway, thank you for replying. Have an upvote.
