Section 4239. Allocation and reporting of income and expenses of life insurers  


Latest version.
  • (a)  In  order  to  enable  the  superintendent  to  determine  compliance  with  this  chapter,  he  may  issue  reasonable regulations
      prescribing  standards  for  the  equitable  allocation  of  income  and
      expenses  as  among lines of business and as between investment expenses
      and insurance expenses. No such regulation or amendment thereto shall be
      promulgated except upon notice to all  insurers  affected  thereby,  and
      after  hearing.  Such regulation or amendment shall not preclude the use
      of other reasonable and equitable standards previously approved  by  the
      superintendent. He may also promulgate regulations defining the items of
      income and expenses to be reported in each line of the annual statement.
      Any  regulation  or  amendment thereto shall be promulgated at least six
      months before the beginning of the calendar year in which the same shall
      take effect.
        (b) The restrictions in subsection (a) hereof as to  notice,  hearing,
      and  effective  period shall not apply to such regulations or amendments
      as may be approved by the superintendent for calendar years as to  which
      similar  regulations  or  amendments  have  been adopted by the National
      Association of Insurance Commissioners.
        (c) If the superintendent finds, after notice and  hearing,  that  any
      such insurer has failed to comply with the requirements of this section,
      he  may  order  such  insurer  to  change its methods of reporting or to
      modify its basis of allocation so as to produce reasonable and equitable
      results.
