(b) In determining its liability on an undertaking for purposes of subdivision (a), an admitted insurer may reduce its liability by either or both of the following: (1) Deposits with the surety insurer, in a manner acceptable to the commissioner, or by conveyance to it in trust for its protection, of assets that would qualify as admitted assets. (2) A clean and irrevocable letter of credit acceptable to the commissioner. 12091. Whenever a surety insurer fails to maintain such a financial condition that assets allowed under subdivision (a) are equal in value to the aggregate of the charges prescribed under subdivision (b), the commissioner shall act as prescribed in Section 12092. (a) In estimating its condition the commissioner shall allow as assets only such as are allowed under law in force at the time of the estimate.

There shall be no liability on the part of, and no cause of action shall arise against, any surety insurer, or its licensed investigative sources, for any statements made by it concerning any employee in a written notice required to be given pursuant to this section.
