A. Pursuant to general powers of investigation and examination vested in the superintendent under Chapter 59A, Article 4 NMSA 1978, the superintendent may order an insurer registered under Section 59A-37-11 NMSA 1978 to produce such records, books or other information papers in the possession of the insurer or its affiliates as are necessary to ascertain the insurer's financial condition, including the enterprise risk to the insurer by the ultimate controlling party, or by any entity or combination of entities within the insurance holding company system, or by the insurance holding company system on a consolidated basis or the insurer's compliance with the Insurance Company Holding Law. If the insurer fails to comply with the order, the superintendent may examine its affiliates to obtain the information. B. The examination shall be conducted and otherwise be subject to applicable provisions of Chapter 59A, Article 4 NMSA 1978. C. To determine compliance with the Insurance Holding Company Law, the superintendent may require that an insurer registered pursuant to Section 59A-37-11 NMSA 1978 produce information not possessed by the insurer if the insurer can access that information through a contractual relationship, statutory obligation or other valid method. If the insurer cannot obtain the information that the superintendent requests, the insurer shall provide the superintendent with a detailed explanation of the reasons for that inability and the identity of the holder of information. If the superintendent believes that the explanation lacks merit, the superintendent may require, after notice and a hearing, that the insurer pay a penalty of five hundred dollars ($500) for each day that the production of information is delayed, or the superintendent may suspend or revoke the insurer's license.
