Scenario 16.2 Use the following to answer the questions. The State Farm Group includes several companies. Probably the most well-known company in the group is the State Farm Insurance company, the largest auto and home insurer in the United States. State Farm Insurance provides protection for approximately 78 million policies on auto, fire, life, and health services. It is also a leading insurer of homes and autos in Canada. Another company in the State Farm group is the State Farm Bank, which was opened in 2000, beginning State Farm's entry into the financial services field. However, the State Farm Bank is not a traditional bank, in that it has no branch offices and its services are provided through State Farm agents, a call center, the mail, and on the Internet.

over 1.9 million bank accounts. Refer to Scenario 16.2.
