Rate Change to Affect Approximately 130,000 Policyholders
State Farm Mutual Automobile Insurance Company, the largest auto insurer in the nation, will cut its rates in Maine. As a result, its overall personal auto rate will drop up to 5.5%. The total state-wide expected impact for State Farm Mutual by this rate decrease in Maine will be approximately $5 million.
“The company’s current financial strength is allowing us to pass along a rate reduction to our Maine customers," said State Farm Senior Vice President Chris Schell. “We continually evaluate how we can best serve our customers and are very pleased to be able to offer this rate decrease in Maine”.
Overall changes in premiums for individual motorists will vary depending on the specific details of an individual customer’s policy and chosen coverages. The effective date for new and renewal business is September 10, 2018. Maine customers with questions can contact their local State Farm agent to discuss their individual situation.
In addition to this rate reduction, State Farm agents are able to review with new and existing customers the many opportunities for additional discounts that may apply to an individual’s unique circumstances. A rate decrease combined with discounts offers an exceptional long-term value to State Farm customers.
