(a) An insurer, or the insurance group of which the insurer is a member, shall, no later than June 1 of each calendar year, submit to the Director a corporate governance annual disclosure that contains the information described in subsection (b) of Section 130.5. Notwithstanding any request from the Director made pursuant to subsection (c), if the insurer is a member of an insurance group, the insurer shall submit the report required by this Section to the Director of the lead state for the insurance group, in accordance with the laws of the lead state, as determined by the procedures outlined in the most recent Financial Analysis Handbook adopted by the National Association of Insurance Commissioners. (b) The corporate governance annual disclosure must include a signature of the insurer's or insurance group's chief executive officer or corporate secretary attesting to the best of that individual's belief and knowledge that the insurer has implemented the corporate governance practices and that a copy of the disclosure has been provided to the insurer's board of directors or the appropriate committee thereof. (c) An insurer not required to submit a corporate governance annual disclosure under this Section shall do so upon the Director's request. (d) For purposes of completing the corporate governance annual disclosure, the insurer or insurance group may provide information regarding corporate governance at the ultimate controlling parent level, an intermediate holding company level, or the individual legal entity level, depending upon how the insurer or insurance group has structured its system of corporate governance. The insurer or insurance group is encouraged to make the corporate governance annual disclosure at the level at which the insurer's or insurance group's risk appetite is determined, the level at which the earnings, capital, liquidity, operations, and reputation of the insurer are overseen collectively and at which the supervision of those factors is coordinated and exercised, or the level at which legal liability for failure of general corporate governance duties would be placed. If the insurer or insurance group determines the level of reporting based on these criteria, it shall indicate which of the 3 criteria was used to determine the level of reporting and explain any subsequent changes in the level of reporting. (e) The review of the corporate governance annual disclosure and any additional requests for information shall be made through the lead state as determined by the procedures within the most recent Financial Analysis Handbook adopted by the National Association of Insurance Commissioners. (f) Insurers providing information substantially similar to the information required by this Article in other documents provided to the Director, including proxy statements filed in conjunction with the requirements of Section 131.13 or other State or federal filings provided to the Department, are not required to duplicate that information in the corporate governance annual disclosure but are only required to cross-reference the document in which the information is included.
