AI Summary
This bill enacts the "Small Insurer Protection Act," which prohibits the filing of an application for an order of rehabilitation or liquidation of a "small insurer" (a domestic property/casualty insurance company with annual net direct written premiums not exceeding $25 million, at least 75% of which is from commercial automobile liability business) on certain grounds unless the order is based on either the superintendent's adoption of an examination report finding the company insolvent, or the company's financial statements showing that its admitted assets do not exceed its liabilities and surplus to policyholders, and the company does not maintain reserves in an amount determined reasonable by its independent loss reserve specialist or appointed actuary. The bill aims to protect small insurance companies, encourage new market entrants, and foster competition in the insurance marketplace.
