Summary

If a reinsurer is based in a state that is NAIC-accredited or has solvency rules very similar to NAIC standards, that home state must be the only state that regulates the reinsurer’s financial health. Other states cannot demand extra financial information beyond what the reinsurer files with its home state, but they may receive copies of those filed financial statements.
