§ RS 22:620. Foreign insurers

A.(1)  Any foreign insurer shall submit to the department upon written request, a risk-based capital report as of the end of the preceding calendar year but not later than the date a risk-based capital report would be required to be filed by a domestic insurer under this Subpart or fifteen days after the request is received by the foreign insurer.

(2)  Any foreign insurer shall promptly submit to the department upon written request, a copy of any risk-based capital report that is filed with the insurance department of any other state.

B.  In the event of a company-action level event, regulatory-action level event, or authorized-control level event of any foreign insurer as determined under the risk-based capital statute applicable in the state of domicile of the insurer or, if no risk-based capital statute is in force in that state, under the provisions of this Subpart, if the insurance department of the state of domicile of the foreign insurer fails to require the foreign insurer to file a risk-based capital plan in the manner specified under that state's risk-based capital statute or, if no risk-based capital statute is in force in that state, under R.S. 22:613, the department may require the foreign insurer to file a risk-based capital plan with the department.  In such event, the failure of the foreign insurer to file a risk-based capital plan with the department shall be grounds to order the insurer to cease and desist from writing new insurance business in this state.

C.  In the event of a mandatory-control level event with respect to any foreign insurer, if no domiciliary receiver has been appointed with respect to the foreign insurer under the rehabilitation and liquidation statute applicable in the state of domicile of the foreign insurer, the department may make application to the Nineteenth Judicial District Court for and in the parish of East Baton Rouge in accordance with this Code with respect to the liquidation of property of the foreign insurers located in the state.  The occurrence of the mandatory-control level event shall be considered adequate grounds for the application to the court.
