A foreign insurer that is required to file a statement under (a) of this section shall, on written request of the director, file an actuarial opinion summary with the director. The actuarial opinion summary must follow, for a given year, the reporting format and requirements specified in the annual financial statement instructions most recently approved by the National Association of Insurance Commissioners and must be supplemented with additional information as required by the director. (c) An insurer that is required to file a statement under (a) of this section shall prepare an actuarial report and work papers to support each statement of actuarial opinion as required by the annual financial statement instructions most recently approved by the National Association of Insurance Commissioners. If an insurer fails to provide a supporting actuarial report or work papers at the request of the director, or the director determines that the supporting actuarial report or work papers provided by the insurer are incomplete or otherwise unacceptable to the director, the director may engage a qualified actuary at the expense of the insurer to review the statement of actuarial opinion and the basis for the statement and to prepare the supporting actuarial report or work papers.

(e) In this section, (1) “appointed actuary” means a qualified actuary who is appointed or retained by a company to provide a statement of actuarial opinion and the related actuarial opinion summary, actuarial report, and work papers; (2) “qualified actuary” means a member in good standing of the (A) Casualty Actuarial Society; or (B) American Academy of Actuaries who has been approved as qualified for signing casualty loss reserve opinions by the Casualty Practice Council of the American Academy of Actuaries.
