The amount recoverable by the liquidator from reinsurers shall not be reduced as a result of the delinquency proceedings regardless of any provision in the reinsurance contract or other agreement. The reinsurance shall be payable under a contract or contracts reinsured by the assuming insurer on the basis of reported claims allowed by the liquidation court, without diminution because of the insolvency of the ceding insurer. Such payments shall be made directly to the ceding insurer or to its domiciliary liquidator except:

  1. Where the contract or other written agreement specifically provides for another payee of such reinsurance in the event of the insolvency of the ceding insurer; or
  2. Where the assuming insurer, with the consent of the direct insured or insureds, has assumed such policy obligations of the ceding insurer as direct obligations of the assuming insurer to the payees under such policies and in substitution for the obligation of the ceding insurer to such payees.

(Code 1981, §33-37-31, enacted by Ga. L. 1991, p. 1424, § 7; Ga. L. 2001, p. 872, § 1.)
