58-27-90. Limitations on acquiring medium or lower grade obligations. No domestic insurer may acquire, directly or indirectly, any medium or lower grade obligation of any institution if, after acquisition, the aggregate amount of all medium and lower grade obligations then held by the domestic insurer would exceed twenty percent of its admitted assets. Of that twenty percent, no more than ten percent may consist of obligations rated four, five, or six. Of the ten percent, not more than three percent may be a combination of obligations rated five and six. Obligations rated six may not exceed one percent. Attaining or exceeding the limit of any one category does not preclude an insurer from acquiring obligations in other categories subject to the specific and multi-category limits. An insurer may exceed the limit of any one category if the rating of an obligation changes after the purchase, but at no time may the insurer exceed the twenty percent limitation.
