Insurance Diversity Index

 

What is the Insurance Diversity Index?

At the heart of the Insurance Diversity Index (Index) is the belief that transparency drives accountability. Access to information empowers consumers to make informed decisions about the companies they choose to do business with, while also encouraging insurance companies to take measurable actions that reflect their values. When insurance company leaders align inclusive governance and supplier contracting practices with clear goals, they strengthen both their organizations and the communities they serve.


Launched in 2023, the Index benchmarks how insurance companies advance board diversity and supplier diversity—two pillars that help build the economic resilience of California’s $400+ billion insurance market, the largest in the nation. The 2025 Index offers the first opportunity to measure how these commitments have evolved over time, highlighting measurable progress while also identifying areas for continued growth. By making this information publicly accessible, the Index enhances transparency for consumers and encourages sustained industry action toward inclusion.


By increasing transparency, measuring progress, and fostering accountability, the Insurance Diversity Index continues to promote a more inclusive, innovative, and economically resilient insurance industry that reflects the diversity of California.
