Current as of January 01, 2025 | Updated by Findlaw Staff

Any person holding a certificate of authority under this chapter may reinsure its total liability under an annuity agreement (as defined in Section 11523) with an admitted insurer for a single premium. In such event, such certificate holder may take credit for such reinsurance in reduction of the amount of the reserve fund it is required to maintain under the provisions of Section 11521, subject to the following conditions:

(a) Such certificate holder shall file with the commissioner a copy of the reinsurance contract specifying which annuity agreement previously filed pursuant to Section 11522 is thereby reinsured.

(b) Such certificate holder shall enter into a written agreement with the annuitant and the reinsurer agreeing that if it should for any reason be unable to continue the making of the annuity payments required by its annuity agreement, the annuitant shall receive payments directly from the reinsurer and that such reinsurer shall be credited with all such direct payments in the accounts between it and such reinsurer.

(c) Any commission granted by the reinsurer on the reinsurance shall be payable only to the certificate holder which shall pay no commission directly or on account of such reinsurance.
