Colorado Revised Statutes Title 10. Insurance § 10-5-103. Conditions for export

(a) The insurance must be procured through a licensed broker.

(b) The full amount of insurance required shall not be procurable, after diligent effort has been made to do so, from among admitted insurers authorized to transact and actually transacting that kind of insurance in this state; and placing the insurance with a nonadmitted insurer shall not be for the purpose of securing a lower premium rate than that which would be accepted by an admitted insurer unless the premium rate quoted by the admitted insurer is more than ten percent higher than that quoted by the nonadmitted insurer.

(c) At the time of the procuring of any such insurance, an affidavit setting forth facts referred to in paragraph (b) of this subsection (1) must be executed by the broker. Such affidavit shall be filed with the commissioner within thirty days after the insurance is procured. In lieu thereof, the commissioner may provide for simplified monthly reporting of coverages procured pursuant to this article.
