Section 031-180-22 - Adequacy of Surplus
The factors set forth in Subsection 10 of the Act are not intended to be an exhaustive list. In determining the adequacy and reasonableness of an insurer's surplus, no single factor is necessarily controlling. The Superintendent, instead, shall consider the net effect of all of these factors plus other factors bearing on the financial condition of the insurer. In comparing the surplus maintained by other insurers, the Superintendent shall consider the extent to which each of these factors varies from company to company and in determining the quality and liquidity of investments in subsidiaries, the Superintendent shall consider the individual subsidiary and may discount or disallow its valuation to the extent that the individual investments so warrant.
