All authorized insurers holding a certificate of authority in the state
State laws require that any insurance company holding a certificate of authority to transact business as an admitted insurer must automatically become a member of the state's Guaranty Association. This ensures the association has the financial backing of the entire authorized industry to protect policyholders if one member becomes insolvent.

To ensure an adequate and reliable safety net, the state requires broad participation from the industry.
