Sec. 12. To aid in the detection and prevention of insurer insolvencies:(1) Every member insurer shall file with the NAIC for use in their Early Warning System on or before March 1 of each year a financial statement of the same type and content as required by IC 27-1-20-21.(2) It shall be the duty of the commissioner:(A) To notify the commissioners of all of the other states, territories of the United States, and the District of Columbia in which a member insurer is licensed to do business when he takes any of the following actions against a member insurer:(i) revocation of license;(ii) suspension of license;(iii) makes any formal order that such company restrict its premium writing, obtain additional contributions to surplus, withdraw from the state, reinsure all or any part of its business, or an increase in capital, surplus, or any other account for the security of policyholders or creditors. Such notice shall be mailed to all commissioners within thirty (30) days following the action taken or the date on which such action occurs.(B) To report to the board of directors when he has taken any of the actions set forth in (A) of this paragraph or has received a report from any other commissioner indicating that any such action has been taken in another state. Such report to the board of directors shall contain all significant details of the action taken or the report received from another commissioner.(C) To report to the board of directors when he has reasonable cause to believe from any examination, whether completed or in process, of any member company, that such company may be insolvent or in a financial condition hazardous to the policyholders or the public.(3) The commissioner may seek the advice and recommendations of the board of directors concerning any matter affecting his duties and responsibilities regarding the financial condition of member companies and companies seeking admission to transact insurance business in this state.(4) The board of directors may, upon majority vote, make reports and recommendations to the commissioner upon any matter germane to the solvency, liquidation, rehabilitation, or conservation of any member insurer or germane to the solvency of any company seeking to do an insurance business in this state. Such reports and recommendations shall not be considered public documents.(5) The board of directors may, upon majority vote, request that the commissioner order an examination of any member insurer which the board in good faith believes may be in a financial condition hazardous to the policyholders or the public. Within thirty (30) days of the receipt of such request, the commissioner shall begin such examination. The examination may be conducted as a NAIC examination or may be conducted by such persons as the commissioner designates provided such persons are qualified insurance accountants or actuaries. The cost of such examination shall be paid by the association and the examination report shall be treated as are other examination reports. In no event shall such examination report be released to the board of directors prior to its release to the public, but this shall not preclude the commissioner from complying with subsection (1). The commissioner shall notify the board of directors when the examination is completed. The request for an examination shall be kept on file by the commissioner but it shall not be open to public inspection prior to the release of the examination report to the public.(6) The board of directors may, upon majority vote, make recommendations to the commissioner for the detection and prevention of insurer insolvencies.Formerly: Acts 1971, P.L.390, SEC.1.
