Section 27-3-26
Annual statement of insurers; furnishing of other information on request.
(a) Each authorized insurer shall, annually on or before March 1, or within such extension of time not exceeding 30 days after March 1 as the commissioner for good cause shown may grant as to a particular insurer, file with the commissioner a full and true statement of its financial condition, transactions and affairs as of the December 31, preceding. The statement shall be in such general form and context as is in current use for similar reports to states in general with respect to the type of insurer and kinds of insurance to be reported upon and as supplemented by additional information required by the commissioner. The statement shall be verified by the oath of the insurer's president or vice-president and secretary or actuary as applicable or, if a reciprocal insurer, by the oath of the attorney-in-fact or its like officers if a corporation.
(b) The statement of an alien insurer shall be verified by the insurer's United States manager or other officer duly authorized and shall relate only to its transactions and affairs in the United States, unless the commissioner requires otherwise. If the commissioner requires a statement as to the alien insurer's affairs throughout the world, the insurer shall file such statement with the commissioner as soon as reasonably possible.
(c) The commissioner may in his discretion suspend or revoke the certificate of authority of an insurer failing to file its annual statement when due. In addition the insurer shall be subject to a penalty of $250.00, such penalty to be collected by the commissioner, if necessary, by a civil action therefor brought by the commissioner in the Circuit Court of Montgomery County, unless waived by the commissioner upon a showing by the insurer of good cause for its failure to file its report on or before the date due.
(d) At time of filing, the insurer shall pay the fee for filing its annual statement as prescribed by Section 27-4-2.
(e) In addition to information called for and furnished in connection with its annual statement, an insurer shall furnish promptly to the commissioner such information with respect to any of its transactions or affairs as the commissioner may, from time to time, request in writing.
