The New York State Department of Financial Services (“DFS”) published Insurance Regulations 206 and 208 in the October 18th State Register. Regulation 206 took effect on October 18, 2017 while Regulation 208 takes effect on December 18, 2017. These new regulations will have a significant impact on the title industry in New York.
