Status: in_force

The purpose of sections 44-416.05 to 44-416.10 is to protect the interest of insureds, claimants, ceding insurers, assuming insurers, and the public generally. The Legislature hereby declares its intent is to ensure adequate regulation of insurers and reinsurers and adequate protection for those to whom they owe obligations. In furtherance of that state interest, the Legislature hereby provides a mandate that upon the insolvency of a non-United-States insurer or reinsurer that provides security to fund its United States obligations in accordance with such sections, the assets representing the security shall be maintained in the United States and claims shall be filed with and valued by the state insurance commissioner with regulatory oversight, and the assets shall be distributed, in accordance with the insurance laws of the state in which the trust is domiciled that are applicable to the liquidation of domestic United States insurance companies. The Legislature declares that the matters contained in such sections are fundamental to the business of insurance in accordance with 15 U.S.C. 1011 and 1012.

The board of directors shall further determine by formal resolution at least annually whether all investments have been made in accordance with the delegations, standards, limitations, and investment objectives prescribed by the board of directors or a committee of the board of directors charged with the responsibility to direct its investments.

(2) The board of directors, after reviewing and assessing the insurer's technical investment and administrative capabilities and expertise, shall adopt a written plan for making investments and for engaging in investment practices. The plan shall specify, unless otherwise authorized by the Director of Insurance, the quality, maturity, and diversification of investments, including investment strategies intended to assure that the investments and investment practices are appropriate for the business conducted by the insurer, its liquidity needs, and its capital and surplus. At least annually, the board of directors or a committee of the board of directors shall review and revise, as appropriate, the written plan.

(3) On no less than a quarterly basis, and more often if deemed appropriate, the board of directors or committee of the board of directors shall receive and review a summary report on the insurer's investment portfolio, investment activities, and investment practices engaged in under delegated authority, in order to determine whether the investment activity of the insurer is consistent with its written plan.

(4) The board of directors shall require that records of authorizations, approvals or other documentation as the board of directors may require, and reports of any action taken under authority delegated under the written plan shall be made available on a regular basis to the board of directors.

(5) The board of directors shall perform its duties in good faith and with that degree of care that ordinarily prudent individuals in like positions would use under similar circumstances.

(6) Each insurer shall maintain a record of its investments in a form and manner as prescribed by the Director of Insurance. Such record shall include an indication by the insurer of the provision of law under which an investment is held.

(7) For purposes of this section, board of directors includes the governing body of an insurer having authority equivalent to that of a board of directors.
