Overview

The Regulatory Actions view on an agency record pulls together every disciplinary, enforcement, or restrictive action on file against that agency and against the agents you have associated with it, so your team can weigh distribution risk, support due diligence, and evidence oversight of your network from one screen.

What is Regulatory Actions?

When you are deciding whether to keep selling through an agency, a clean regulatory history is part of the answer. Regulatory Actions is where you see, in one table, every fine, suspension, consent order, revocation, or other state-issued action levied against an agency and its associated agents, without chasing each state's department of insurance site.

A regulatory action is any state-issued measure (fine, license suspension, consent order, cease-and-desist, probation, revocation) recorded against a licensed insurance entity. Turris ingests this data from NIPR and surfaces it on the agency's record alongside actions against any agents you have linked to that agency.

Who uses it. Compliance officers, licensing managers, and onboarding leads at MGAs and carriers who need a defensible record of regulatory history when underwriting a new agency relationship, running a periodic distribution review, or answering an internal audit.

What you can do on this page:

See every regulatory action against the agency and its associated agents in one table.
Tell agency-level actions apart from agent-level actions with a Category badge on each row.
See the state the action was filed in, what triggered it, why it was filed, and how it was resolved.
See the financial penalty (fines, forfeitures) attached to each action, in U.S. dollars.
See how long each order stayed in effect, expressed in days.
See the effective date of each action so you can separate active or recent matters from old, resolved ones.

Note: Regulatory Actions is a premium feature. If your subscription does not include it, the page shows an upgrade prompt instead of the table, and the Regulatory Actions view link does not appear in the agency's sidebar. Organizations that are not active Turris customers see a "Become a Customer" prompt.

Accessing Regulatory Actions

Open Left sidebar → Agencies. The agencies list loads.
Click the row for the agency you want to inspect. The agency detail page opens on the CRM view (the Overview tab) by default.
In the left sidebar, the agency's view links appear nested beneath Agencies (CRM, License Compliance, Licenses, Authority, Appointments, E&O/Cyber, Regulatory Actions). Click Regulatory Actions.

Note: The top-level Regulatory Actions item in the main left sidebar is a different, cross-agency dashboard that rolls up action counts for every agency. The view documented here is the per-agency table you reach from inside a single agency record.

The page header shows the agency's name as the title, with the subtitle "View regulatory actions levied against the agency and any associated agent" next to a small help icon. Hovering the icon shows "Only includes agents you have associated with this agency", clarifying the scope: agents who are not linked to this agency in Turris do not appear, even if they have actions on file.

If the agency and its associated agents have no actions on record, the page shows a centered No data available message reading "This agency does not have any regulatory actions data".

What's visible on the page

Each row in the table represents one regulatory action. The columns are:

Column	What it shows
Name	The entity the action was filed against. For agency-level actions, the agency's legal name. For agent-level actions, the agent's full name.
Category	A neutral grey badge labelled Agency or Agent, identifying who the action applies to.
Disposition	The outcome of the action: the order type issued or how the matter was resolved.
State	A two-letter state code in a circle, showing the U.S. state or territory the action was filed in. (The circle is hidden on very small screens.)
Length of Order	How long the order stayed in effect, in days. Hover the header's help icon for the hint "Length of time in days the regulatory action was in effect".
Origin of Action	The source or trigger that led to the action.
Sanctions	The monetary penalty, formatted as whole U.S. dollars (for example, `$5,000`). Hover the header's help icon for the hint "Includes penalties, fines, and forfeitures".
Reason for Action	A short description of why the regulator acted.
Last Action Date	The effective date of the action, formatted as `Mon D, YYYY` (for example, `Mar 4, 2024`). Hover the header's help icon for the hint "Date of the most recent regulatory action taken against associated agents and agency".

Any cell with no value from the source data shows an em-dash (—). Rows load with the agency's own actions listed first, followed by actions against associated agents; the table is not pre-sorted by a visible column. Click any column header to sort the table by that column, then click it again to reverse the order. The table paginates, defaulting to 10 rows per page; use the page-size selector at the bottom to switch between 10, 20, 30, 40, and 50.

Filtering and Searching

This page has no dedicated filter dropdowns. Use the search box at the top of the agency detail page to narrow the table in place.

Filter	Type	Purpose	Example use
Page search box	Free-text match	Type to filter the rows on screen.	Reviewing only agent-level matters? Type `Agent` and the Category column narrows the table to agent rows.

The search box matches your text against the table's columns. Category and Length of Order support partial (fuzzy) matching, so typing part of the value still finds the row; the name and state columns match from the start of the value (typing an agent's first name finds them, a middle word will not). Clear the search box to restore the full table. If your search matches nothing, the table shows a No matching results message.

Status and Visual Elements

Element	Label	Meaning	What to do about it
Category badge	Agency	The action was filed against the agency itself (the legal entity).	Treat as firm-level history: relevant to the entire distribution relationship.
Category badge	Agent	The action was filed against an individual licensed producer you have associated with the agency.	Review that producer's role in your book; an agent-level action may not implicate the agency.
State marker	Two-letter state code in a circle	The U.S. state or territory the action was filed in.	Cross-reference with the agency's or agent's license footprint in that state.
Cell value	`—` (em-dash)	The regulator did not publish a value for this field.	The action itself is valid; only the specific detail is unavailable. Contact the issuing state regulator if you need it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where does the regulatory action data come from? Turris ingests regulatory action data from NIPR for licensed insurance entities. New actions appear automatically once they are published and reconciled by Turris on its standard sync cadence.

Why don't I see actions for every agent I work with? This page only includes actions for agents that have been associated with this specific agency in Turris. An agent with actions on file who is not linked to this agency does not appear here. Associate the agent with the agency to bring those records into view.

Why is a field blank on a row? Regulators do not publish every field for every action. When the source data has no value, the cell shows an em-dash. The action record is still valid; only the missing detail is unavailable.

Does the Sanctions column include restitution or disgorgement? The Sanctions column reflects penalties, fines, and forfeitures as published by the regulator. Other monetary remedies such as restitution and disgorgement are not aggregated into this column.

What does Length of Order mean for an action that is still active? Length of Order is the duration of the order as published by the regulator. For ongoing actions that have not been resolved, this value may be zero or shown as an em-dash.

Can I export or download the table? Not from this page. The table is read-only and intended for in-app review. If you need a record outside Turris, take a screenshot or copy the row content; for bulk extracts, contact the Turris support team.

Best Practices

Check Regulatory Actions during agency onboarding and at every periodic due-diligence review. A fresh look at each touch point keeps your compliance file current without depending on alerts.
Use the Category badge to separate firm-level history from individual-producer history before assessing risk. A single agent action carries different commercial weight than a firm-wide consent order.
Read Last Action Date alongside Length of Order before reacting. A ten-year-old, sixty-day suspension is a very different signal from a thirty-day-old, three-year revocation.
Record your review in the agency's Notes tab. Capturing what you considered and why turns the in-app data into auditable evidence that the review happened.
Contact the issuing state regulator when a disposition or origin of action is unclear. The regulator's office is the authoritative source for interpretation; do not commit to commercial action based on ambiguous wording.
