56-22-108. Surplus or emergency fund Investment of assets Borrowing to cover losses.

(a) In the event that the commissioner determines the existing surplus to be inadequate, a county mutual insurance company shall seek to accumulate a surplus or emergency fund in an amount that might be deemed necessary by the commissioner.

(b) A county mutual insurance company may invest its assets in the same manner as an insurance company licensed to write property and casualty lines of insurance as provided for by chapter 3, part 4 of this title.

(c) A county mutual insurance company may borrow money for the purpose of paying extraordinary losses. A county mutual insurance company shall conduct its affairs in such a manner as to pay those losses as might normally be expected in the course of doing business and to accumulate a surplus that might be used to pay losses above normal losses. A county mutual insurance company may borrow money only when it incurs substantial, extraordinary losses, and must notify the commissioner of its intent to borrow money to pay losses at least ten (10) business days before borrowing the money.

[Acts 2006, ch. 689, §§ 3, 11.]
