(a) If the Commissioner determines that an insurer’s investment practices do not meet the provisions of this article, the Commissioner may, after notification to the insurer of the Commissioner’s findings, order the insurer to make changes necessary to comply with the provisions of this article.

(b) If the Commissioner determines that by reason of the financial condition, current investment practice, or current investment plan of an insurer, the interests of insureds, creditors, or the general public are or may be endangered, the Commissioner may impose reasonable additional restrictions upon the admissibility or valuation of investments or may impose restrictions on the investment practices of an insurer, including prohibition or divestment.

(c) If the Commissioner is satisfied by evidence of an insurer’s financial strength and the competence of management and its investment advisers, the Commissioner may count toward satisfaction of the minimum asset requirement any other investment not specifically prohibited by this article to the extent that the Commissioner is satisfied that the interests of insureds, creditors, and the general public of this state are protected.
