is appointed to serve a three-year term begins his or her service on 
the first January 1 occurring after his or her appointment. A member 
appointed to fill an vacant unexpired term serves for the remaining 
time of the term. The Board provides a nominal honorarium and 
reimburses members only for their actual travel expenses, subject to 
Board policy.

equal appointment opportunity to all persons without regard to race, 
color, religion, sex (including sexual orientation, gender identity, 
and pregnancy), national origin, age, disability, genetic information, 
or military service. In addition, the Board is committed to a diverse 
committee and seeks a diverse set of expert perspectives from the 
various sectors of the U.S. insurance industry including life 
insurance, property and casualty insurance and reinsurance, agents and 
brokers, academics, consumer advocates, and experts on issues facing 
underserved insurance communities and consumers. The Board also seeks 
relevant actuarial, legal, regulatory, and accounting expertise, as 
well as expertise on lines of business underwritten by its currently 
supervised population of insurance institutions.

and prepare for and attend meetings in person. Membership and 
attendance is not delegable.

System, acting through the Director of the Division of Supervision 
and Regulation under delegated authority.
Ann Misback,
