Verification log

No insurer is licensed in Palau because no licensing regime exists. All rows are Guam-based insurers writing Palau risks through local offices or agents (Moylan's Insurance Underwriters (Palau), Inc. and Calvo's Palau Insurance Underwriters, Inc. are agencies/MGAs and are excluded). The PGST registry also shows the trading names "Poltalia National Insurance" and "OCEAN SHIELD INSURANCE GROUP"; neither could be identified as an insurer, so both are excluded pending research. DB Insurance probably writes in Palau through Moylan's (MGA with a Koror branch), but no Palau-specific source was found, so it is excluded. The Palau National Health Insurance run by the Social Security Administration is a statutory scheme, not an insurer.
