58-5A-80.2 . International active insurance group--Group-wide supervisor determination.
In cooperation with other state, federal, and international regulatory agencies, the director shall identify a single group-wide supervisor for an internationally active insurance group. The director may determine that the director is the appropriate group-wide supervisor for an internationally active insurance group that conducts substantial insurance operations concentrated in this state. The director may acknowledge that an insurance regulatory official from another jurisdiction is the appropriate group-wide supervisor for the internationally active insurance group. When making a determination or acknowledgment under this section, the director shall consider the following factors:
(1) The place of domicile of the insurers within the internationally active insurance group that hold the largest share of the group’s written premiums, assets, or liabilities;
(2) The place of domicile of the top-tiered insurer or insurers in the insurance holding company system of the internationally active insurance group;
(3) The location of the executive offices or largest operational offices of the internationally active insurance group;
(4) Whether another regulatory official is acting or is seeking to act as the group-wide supervisor under a regulatory system that the director determines is:
(a) Substantially similar to the system of regulation provided under the laws of this state; or
(b) Otherwise sufficient in terms of providing for group-wide supervision, enterprise risk analysis, and cooperation with other regulatory officials; and
(5) Whether another regulatory official acting or seeking to act as the group-wide supervisor provides the director with reasonably reciprocal recognition and cooperation.
The insurance regulatory official identified under this section as the group-wide supervisor may determine that it is appropriate to acknowledge another supervisor to serve as the group-wide supervisor. The acknowledgment of the group-wide supervisor shall be made after consideration of the factors listed above and made in cooperation with and subject to the acknowledgment of other regulatory officials involved with supervision of members of the internationally active insurance group, and in consultation with the internationally active insurance group.
