Examinations
Our programs can accommodate every conceivable type of examination contemplated under statute or regulation of any
traditional, non-traditional or captive insurer.
Specific examination services include:
- Perform comprehensive and/or targeted examinations of insurers, risk retention groups and captives
under the direction of the Department of Insurance as required under pertinent statutes and regulations.
- Follow all applicable examination procedures as set forth in the NAIC Financial Condition
Examiners Handbook and/or Market Regulation Handbook, and any requirements in the Department's
own Financial or Market Conduct Examiner's Manuals.
- Observe and support functions relevant to the NAIC Financial Regulation Accreditation
Program.
- Adopt and incorporate the NAIC Accounting Practices and Procedures Manual into the
examination process.
Our examination experts will work with Department personnel to develop a comprehensive planning and scope document. The team will coordinate with designated actuaries and other specialists as needed. The resulting plan will include estimated
start, completion, supervisory review and exit interview dates. It will recap an understanding of the methods and
assumptions to be used by the examiner, team, actuary, or any other specialists needed for the project. The report will
be produced in hard copy with an electronic version available in Adobe or Word formats. TeamMate or other similar
examination software tools are standard features used by our experts. Finally, status reporting occurs on a twice
monthly basis as a matter of routine.
Receivership
Specific receivership services include:
- Intervene upon an order of examination to assist Department examiners or other experts to develop and implement
a corrective action plan and monitor for compliance.
- Staff and manage a seizure, conservation, rehabilitation, or liquidation event.
- Coordinate with Guaranty Association(s), Department staff, and Attorneys General.
- Develop plans relevant to the action contemplated (typically rehabilitation or liquidation).
- Incorporate provisions of the NAIC’s Receivership Handbook, IRMA, or State specific guidelines as needed.
We will use reasonable judgment and experience to prepare a budget for each engagement
based upon the client's requirements, policies, procedures and goals.
