North Dakota Century Code Title 26.1. Insurance § 26.1-03-02.1. Valuation of securities and other investments

1. All securities and investments of insurance companies must be valued in accordance with published valuation standards of the national association of insurance commissioners including the accounting practices and procedure manuals and publications by the valuation of securities office of the national association of insurance commissioners.

2. All investments of insurance companies authorized to do business in this state, for which no method of valuation has been otherwise provided, must be valued in the discretion of the commissioner at their fair market value, appraised value, or at amounts determined by the commissioner as their fair market value. If any valuation of an investment by an insurer appears to be an unreasonable estimate of its true value, the commissioner has the authority to cause the investment to be appraised, and the appraised value must be substituted as the true value. The appraisal must be made by two disinterested and competent persons, one to be appointed by the commissioner and one to be appointed by the insurer. In the event these two persons fail to agree, they shall appoint a third disinterested and competent person, and the estimate of the value of the investment, as arrived at by these three persons, must be substituted as the true value.
