Sec. 32-534. Regulation, investigation and examination by Insurance Commissioner to determine if exempt insurer is an exempt company and limits its activities. Judicial action for revocation of certificate. (a) An exempt insurer shall be subject
to regulation, investigation and examination by the Insurance Commissioner, as reasonably necessary, to enable the commissioner to determine if the exempt insurer is an
exempt company and limits its activities to exempt activities. The Insurance Commissioner may adopt regulations in accordance with the provisions of chapter 54 to implement the provisions of this section. Such regulations and all investigative and examination activities may include provisions for determination of the status of a company as
an exempt company and revocation of such status. Such regulations and all examination
activities shall be consistent with the confidentiality provisions of section 32-537 and
shall not impose requirements on the exempt insurer except to the extent necessary to
enable the commissioner to verify the company's status as an exempt company. Such
regulations may provide for the assessment and collection of fees from exempt insurers
sufficient, in the commissioner's judgment, to meet the expenses of the Insurance Department in carrying out its responsibilities under this section. If the commissioner finds
that an exempt insurer has (1) intentionally engaged in activities that are not exempt
activities or (2) engaged in a pattern of conduct demonstrating reckless indifference by
engaging in activities that are not exempt activities, the commissioner may bring an
action in the superior court for the judicial district of Hartford to revoke the certificate
filed under section 32-532. The commissioner shall not be required to post a bond with
the court.
(b) Unless otherwise specifically provided in sections 32-530 to 32-540, inclusive,
an exempt insurer shall be treated as if its exempt activities were being conducted from
offices located outside of the United States.
