c)         Amendments

 

1)         An amendment to Form B shall be filed within 15 days after the end of any month in which the following occurs:

1)         Any authorized insurer may file a registration statement on behalf of any affiliated insurer or insurers required to register under Section 131.13 of the Code.  Two or more affiliated insurers required to file may file a consolidated registration statement unless required otherwise by the Director. The Director shall request separate registration statements when the consolidated registration statement does not provide adequate information regarding the domestic insurer pursuant to Section 131.14 of the Code.  A registration statement may include information regarding any insurer in the insurance holding company system even if such insurer is not authorized to do business in this State.  In lieu of filing a registration statement in the format designated on Form B, the authorized insurer may file a copy of the registration statement or similar report the authorized insurer is required to file in its state of domicile provided:

 

A)        the statement or report contains substantially similar information required to be furnished on Form B.

3)         With the prior approval of the Director, an unauthorized insurer that is the principal insurer may follow any of the procedures which could be done by an authorized insurer under subsection (d)(1).

 

e)         Exemptions

 

1)         A foreign or alien insurer otherwise subject to this Section shall not be required to register pursuant to Section 131.13 of the Code if it is admitted in the domiciliary state of the principal insurer (as the term is defined in subsection (d)(2) of this Section) and in that State is subject to disclosure requirements and standards adopted by statute or regulation that are substantially similar to those contained in Sections 131.13 through 131.19 of the Code.  The Director may require a copy of the registration statement or other information filed with the domiciliary state. 

 

2)         The state of entry of an alien insurer shall be deemed to be its domiciliary state for the purpose of this Part.

 

f)         Disclaimers and Termination of Registration

 

1)         A disclaimer or a request for termination of registration claiming that a person does not or will not, upon the taking of some proposed action, control any other person (i.e., the "subject") shall contain the following information:

ii)         information as to all transactions in any voting securities of the subject that were effected during the past six months by that person;

 

C)        all relationships and bases for affiliation between the subject and the person whose control is denied and all affiliates of that person;

 

D)        a statement explaining why the person whose control is denied would not be considered to control the subject.

 

2)         A request for termination of registration shall be deemed to have been granted unless the Director, within 30 days after receiving the request, notifies the registrant otherwise. The request will be granted if the request is in compliance with the requirements of Article VIII˝ of the Code and this Part.

Section 652.40  Summary of Changes to Registration Statement

 

An insurer required to file a statement pursuant to Section 131.13 of the Code shall also file a summary of changes to the registration statement in the format and as specified in Form C, which is Illustration C of this Part.  A Summary of Changes to the Registration Statement must be filed simultaneously with the annual registration statement filed pursuant to 50 Ill.

Section 652.50  Enterprise Risk Report

 

a)         The ultimate controlling person of an insurer required to file an enterprise risk report pursuant to Section 131.14b(a) of the Illinois Insurance Code shall furnish the required information on or before May 1 of each year in the format and providing the information specified in Form F (Illustration F of this Part).

Excerpts of documents may be filed as exhibits if the documents are extensive. Documents currently on file with the Director that were filed within the prior 3 years need not be attached as exhibits. References to information contained in exhibits or in documents already on file shall clearly identify the material and shall specifically indicate that material is to be incorporated by reference in answer to the item. Material shall not be incorporated by reference in any case in which the incorporation would render the statement incomplete, unclear or confusing.

 

3)         When an item requires a summary or outline of the provisions of any document, only a brief statement shall be made as to the pertinent provisions of the document. In addition to the statement, the summary or outline may incorporate by reference particular parts of any exhibit or document currently on file with the Director that was filed within the prior 3 years and may be qualified in its entirety by that reference. In any case in which 2 or more documents required to be filed as exhibits are substantially identical in all material respects except as to the parties to the documents, the dates of execution, or other details, a copy of only one of the documents need be filed with a schedule identifying the omitted documents and setting forth the material details in which the other documents differ from the copied document.

Section 652.55  Group Capital Calculation

 

a)         The Director has the discretion to exempt the ultimate controlling person from filing the annual group capital calculation if the Director, acting as the lead state commissioner, makes a determination that the insurance holding company system meets all of the following criteria:

 

1)         Has annual direct written and unaffiliated assumed premium (including international direct and assumed premium), but excluding premiums reinsured with the Federal Crop Insurance Corporation and Federal Flood Program, of less than $1,000,000,000;

 

2)         Has no insurers within its holding company structure that are domiciled outside of the United States or one of its territories;

 

3)         Has no banking, depository or other financial entity that is subject to an identified regulatory capital framework within its holding company structure;

 

4)         The holding company system attests that there are no material changes in the transactions between insurers and non-insurers in the group; and

 

5)         The non-insurers within the holding company system do not pose a material financial risk to the insurer’s ability to honor policyholder obligations.

 

b)         The Director, acting as the lead state commissioner, has the discretion to accept in lieu of the group capital calculation a limited group capital filing if:

 

1)         The insurance holding company system has annual direct written and unaffiliated assumed premium (including international direct and assumed premium), but excluding premiums reinsured with the Federal Crop Insurance Corporation and Federal Flood Program, of less than $1,000,000,000; and all of the following additional criteria are met:

 

A)        Has no insurers within its holding company structure that are domiciled outside of the United States or one of its territories;

 

B)        Does not include a banking, depository or other financial entity that is subject to an identified regulatory capital framework; and

 

C)        The holding company system attests that there are no material changes in transactions between insurers and non-insurers in the group and the non-insurers within the holding company system do not pose a material financial risk to the insurers ability to honor policyholder obligations.

 

c)         For an insurance holding company that has previously received an exemption with respect to the group capital calculation pursuant to subsection (a) or (b), the Director, acting as the lead state commissioner, may require at any time the ultimate controlling person or a controlling person who is not the ultimate controlling person to file an annual group capital calculation, completed in accordance with the NAIC Group Capital Calculation Instructions, if any of the following criteria are met:

 

1)         Any insurer within the insurance holding company system is experiencing a Risk-Based Capital action level event as set forth in Sections 35A-15 through 35A-30 of the Code or a similar standard for a non-U.S. insurer; or

 

2)         Any insurer within the insurance holding company system meets one or more of the standards of an insurer deemed to be in hazardous financial condition as defined in Section 186.1 of the Code; or

 

3)         Any insurer within the insurance holding company system otherwise exhibits qualities of a troubled insurer as determined by the lead state commissioner based on unique circumstances including, but not limited to, the type and volume of business written, ownership and organizational structure, federal agency requests, and international supervisor requests.

 

d)         A non-U.S. jurisdiction is considered to "recognize and accept" the group capital calculation if it satisfies the following criteria:

 

1)         With respect to Section 131.14b(b)(4) of the Code:

 

A)        The non-U.S. jurisdiction recognizes the U.S. state regulatory approach to group supervision and group capital, by providing confirmation by a competent regulatory authority in such jurisdiction, that insurers and insurance groups whose lead state is accredited by the NAIC under the NAIC Accreditation Program shall be subject only to worldwide prudential insurance group supervision including worldwide group governance, solvency and capital, and reporting, as applicable, by the lead state and will not be subject to group supervision, including worldwide group governance, solvency and capital, and reporting, at the level of the worldwide parent undertaking of the insurance or reinsurance group by the non-U.S. jurisdiction; or

 

B)        When no U.S. insurance groups operate in the non-U.S. jurisdiction, that non-U.S. jurisdiction indicates formally in writing to the lead state with a copy to the International Association of Insurance Supervisors that the group capital calculation is an acceptable international capital standard. This will serve as the documentation otherwise required in subsection (d)(1)(A).

 

2)         The non-U.S. jurisdiction provides confirmation by a competent regulatory authority in such jurisdiction that information regarding insurers and their parent, subsidiary, or affiliated entities, if applicable, shall be provided to the lead state commissioner in accordance with a memorandum of understanding or similar document between the Director and such jurisdiction, including but not limited to the International Association of Insurance Supervisors Multilateral Memorandum of Understanding or other multilateral memoranda of understanding coordinated by the NAIC. The Director shall determine, in consultation with the NAIC Committee Process, if the requirements of the information sharing agreements are in force.

 

e)         A list of non-U.S. jurisdictions that "recognize and accept" the group capital calculation are published through the NAIC Committee Process:

 

1)         A list of jurisdictions that "recognize and accept" the group capital calculation pursuant to Section 131.14b(b)(4) of the Code, is published through the NAIC Committee Process to assist the lead state commissioner in determining which insurers shall file an annual group capital calculation. The list clarifies those situations in which a jurisdiction is exempted from filing under Section 131.14b(b)(4) of the Code. To assist with a determination under Section 131.14b(b)(5) of the Code, the list identifies whether a jurisdiction that is exempted under either Section 131.14b(b)(3) or 131.14b(b)(4) of the Code requires a group capital filing for any U.S.-based insurance group’s operations in that non-U.S. jurisdiction.

 

2)         For a non-U.S. jurisdiction where no U.S. insurance groups operate, the confirmation provided to meet the requirement of subsection (d)(1)(B) will serve as support for recommendation to be published as a jurisdiction that "recognizes and accepts" the group capital calculation through the NAIC Committee Process.

 

3)         If the lead state commissioner makes a determination pursuant to Section 131.14b(b)(4) of the Code that differs from the NAIC list, the lead state commissioner will provide a thoroughly documented justification to the NAIC and other states.

 

4)         Upon determination by the lead state commissioner that a non-U.S. jurisdiction no longer meets one or more of the requirements to "recognize and accept" the group capital calculation, the lead state commissioner may provide a recommendation to the NAIC that the non-U.S. jurisdiction be removed from the list of jurisdictions that "recognize and accept" the group capital calculation.

E.         Information Unknown or Not Available

Information required need be given only insofar as it is known or reasonably available to the Registrant.  If any required information is unknown and not reasonably available to the Registrant, either because obtaining it would involve unreasonable effort or expense, or because it rests peculiarly within the knowledge of another person not affiliated with the Registrant, the information may be omitted, subject to the following conditions:

When an item requires a summary or outline of the provisions of any document, only a brief statement shall be made as to the most important provisions of the document.  In addition to the statement, the summary or outline may incorporate by reference particular parts of any exhibit and may be qualified in its entirety by the reference.

 

H.        Extension of Time for Furnishing Information

If it is impractical to furnish any required information, document or report at the time it is required to be filed, the Registrant may file with the Director as a separate document an application (l) identifying the information, document or report in question; (2) stating why filing at the time required is impractical; and (3) requesting an extension to a specified date for filing the information, document or report.  The application shall be deemed granted unless the Director, within 30 days after receipt of the application, shall enter an order denying the application.

 

Information required needs to be given only insofar as it is known or reasonably available to the registrant.  If any required information is unknown and not reasonably available to the registrant, either because obtaining it would involve unreasonable effort or expense, or because it rests peculiarly within the knowledge of another person not affiliated with the registrant, the information may be omitted, subject to the following conditions:

 

1)         The registrant shall give such information on the subject as it possesses or can acquire without unreasonable effort or expense, including, but not limited to, impossibility or the loss or destruction of documents, together with the sources of the documents.

 

2)         The registrant shall include a statement either showing that unreasonable effort or expense would be involved or indicating the absence of any affiliation with the person within whose knowledge the information rests and stating the result of a request made to that person for the information.

 

I.          Additional Exhibits

The Registrant may file such exhibits as it may desire, in addition to those expressly required by the statement.  The additional exhibits shall be marked to indicate clearly the subject matters to which they refer.

 

J.          Omission of Substantially Identical Documents

In any case in which 2 or more documents required to be filed as exhibits are substantially identical in all material aspects except as to the parties to the document, the dates of execution, or other details, the registrant need file a copy of only one of the documents, with a schedule identifying the omitted documents and setting forth the material details in which the documents differ from the documents filed.  The Director, at any time in his or her discretion, may require the filing of copies of any omitted documents in order to verify that the omitted documents are substantially identical to documents on file. For purposes of this instruction, documents will be deemed substantially similar in all material aspects when a Department analyst, upon examining the documents independently, could reasonably make the same determinations and decisions regarding the documents.

 

K.        Financial Statements

 

1)         Financial statements and exhibits should be attached to this statement as an appendix, but list under this item the financial statements and exhibits so attached.

 

2)         The financial statements shall include the annual financial statements of each ultimate controlling person in the insurance holding company system as of the end of the person's latest fiscal year. 

 

3)         The financial statements may be prepared on either an individual basis or, unless the Director otherwise requires, on a consolidated basis if consolidated statements are prepared in the usual course of business.

 

4)         Except as provided in subsections (1) through (3), the financial statement shall be filed in a standard form and format adopted by the National Association of Insurance Commissioners, unless an alternative form is accepted by the Director. Documentation and financial statements filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission or audited GAAP financial statements are an appropriate form and format.

 

5)         Any ultimate controlling person who is an individual may file personal financial statements that are reviewed rather than audited by an independent public accountant. The review shall be conducted in accordance with standards for review of personal financial statements published in the Personal Financial Statements Guide by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. Personal financial statements shall be accompanied by the independent public accountant's Standard Review Report stating that the accountant is not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the financial statements in order for the statements to be in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

 

6)         Exhibits shall include copies of the latest annual reports to shareholders of the ultimate controlling person and proxy material used by the ultimate controlling person and any additional documents or papers required by Form B or regulation.

 

7)         If, at the time of the initial registration, the annual financial statements for the previous fiscal year are not available, annual statements for the previous fiscal year shall, unless previously filed by amendment, be filed and similar financial information consisting of balance sheet, operational statement and a statement of source and application of funds shall be filed for any subsequent period to the extent that information is available. The financial statements are to be audited by an independent certified public accountant in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards and are to contain financial information presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.  If the ultimate controlling person is an insurer that is actively engaged in the business of insurance, the financial statements need not be audited, provided they are based on the Annual Statement of the insurer's domiciliary state and are in accordance with requirements of insurance or other accounting principles prescribed or permitted under laws and regulations of that state.

 

L.         Shareholder Reports and Proxy Material

Exhibits shall include copies of the latest annual reports to shareholders of the ultimate controlling person and any proxy material used by the ultimate controlling person during the preceding year.

 

M.        Signature and Certification

For purpose of filing Form B and Form C, the signatures and certifications required by this Part shall be signed by an executive officer of the registrant.

 

N.        Filing Fee

Pursuant to Section 408 of the Code [215 ILCS 5/408], the Director shall collect a fee for the filing of a registration statement.  The filing of the registration statement shall not be deemed complete until the Director has received the appropriate filing fee as required by Section 408.
