6. Authorization for Delivery of Agreements Providing Benefits on a Variable Basis — Determination of Qualification

No domestic life insurance company, and no other life insurance company admitted to transact business in this state, shall be authorized to deliver within this state any agreement providing benefits in variable amounts until the company has satisfied the commissioner that its condition or methods of operation in connection with the issuance of the agreements will not render its operation hazardous to the public or its policyholders in this state. In determining the qualification of a company requesting authority to deliver the agreements within this state, the commissioner shall consider, among other things:

1. The history and financial condition of the company;
2. The character, responsibility and general fitness of the officers and directors of the company; and
3. In the case of a company other than a domestic company, whether the statutes and regulations of the jurisdiction of its incorporation provide a degree of protection to policyholders and the public that is substantially equal to that provided by this part and the rules and regulations issued under this part.
