The OII began operations in 1968. Its predecessor, the Underwriters Service Association, Inc, was chartered in 1932. In 1968, the Underwriters Service merged with Ohio Insurance Information Service to form the OII. The Insurance Federation of Ohio, founded in 1970, merged with Ohio Insurance Institute in 1989 to provide expanded services. The association's primary objective is to help Ohioans achieve a better understanding of insurance and related safety issues. To attain this goal, the OII provides services in three areas: Public Information, Education and Research, and Legislative and Regulatory Affairs. OII membership in October 2003 included 33 domestic P/C companies, seven foreign P/C insurers and reinsurers, eight insurance trade associations and two insurance-related organizations. In 2001, OII members collected nearly $6 billion in P/C premiums in Ohio. This represents about 41 percent of the state's total P/C business ( based on premium volume ).
