Bill Caption

Relating to registration statement and reporting requirements of insurers in an insurance holding company system.

Fiscal Notes

From the Legislative Budget Board: no significant fiscal implication to the state is anticipated.

Bill Analysis

Under current law, if the amount of a single transaction or the total amount of all transactions involving sales, purchases, exchanges, loans, or investments is more than the lesser one half of 1% of an insurer’s assets or 5% of an insurer’s surplus, the transaction or transactions are material for disclosure on a registration statement by an insurance holding company systems. 

SB 1073 would make a few procedural changes to the requirements so as to clarify when a report must be submitted and when a waiver may be applied for.

Vote Recommendation Notes

This is a procedural bill that deals with insurance reporting requirements and does not appear to have a connection to our liberty principles, therefore we remain neutral.
