Illinois Statutes Chapter 215. Insurance § 155/10. Reserves

§ 10. Reserves. All title insurance companies authorized to do business under this Act shall establish and maintain reserves against unpaid losses and loss expenses. Upon receiving notice from or on behalf of the insured of a title defect, lien or adverse claim against the title of the insured that may result in a loss or cause expense to be incurred in the proper disposition of the claim, the title insurance company shall determine the amount to be added to the reserve, which amount shall reflect a careful estimate of the loss or loss expense likely to result by reason of the claim. Reserves required under this Section may be revised from time to time and shall be redetermined at least once each year. A title insurance company must maintain its reserves for losses independent of any other form of insurance and therefore may not issue other lines of insurance.
