New Mexico Statutes Chapter 59A. Insurance Code § 59A-42-10. Duties and powers of the superintendent

(1) notify the association of the existence of an insolvent insurer not later than three days after the superintendent receives notice of the determination of the insolvency;

(2) upon request of the board, provide the association with a statement of the premiums in this or another state of each member insurer; and

(3) when an impairment is declared and the amount of the impairment is determined, serve a demand upon the impaired insurer to make good the impairment within a reasonable time. Notice to the impaired insurer shall constitute notice to its shareholders, if any. The failure of the insurer to promptly comply with the demand shall not excuse the association from the performance of its powers and duties pursuant to the Life and Health Insurance Guaranty Association Act.

(1) suspend or revoke, after notice and hearing, the certificate of authority to transact insurance in this state of a member insurer that fails to pay an assessment when due or that fails to comply with the plan of operation. As an alternative, the superintendent may levy a fine on a member insurer that fails to pay an assessment when due. The fine shall not exceed five percent of the unpaid assessment a month, except that no fine shall be less than one hundred dollars ($100) a month; and

(2) revoke the designation of a servicing facility if the superintendent finds that claims are being handled unsatisfactorily.
