Section 10-3-213 - Investments eligible as admitted assets(1) Domestic insurance companies may invest their funds in the categories of assets described in sections 10-3-215 to 10-3-230 and 10-3-242. Every such investment shall be an admitted asset of the company; except that, if the section describing a category of asset contains a quantitative limitation, an investment in that category of asset shall be an admitted asset under that section to the extent that it does not exceed such limitation. Any such limitation shall apply only with respect to the category of assets described in that section and shall not constitute a general prohibition and shall not be applicable to any other section. Except as provided in section 10-3-237, any investment, or part thereof, that does not qualify under any of said sections shall not be an admitted asset under the provisions of this part 2. Except as specifically provided in this title (except article 15) and article 14 of title 24, C.R.S., a domestic insurance company shall not be prohibited from acquiring or holding an asset that is not an admitted asset, and such company may lend, pledge, sell, transfer, assign, hypothecate, dispose of, or exchange any asset acquired by it.(2) Notwithstanding the provisions of subsection (1) of this section, an insurance company or other regulated entity to whom this section applies shall be required reasonably to diversify its investments made pursuant to sections 10-3-215 to 10-3-230 and 10-3-242 as to type and issue, and to maintain a sufficient degree of liquidity based on the nature of the business transacted. The commissioner may promulgate such reasonable rules and regulations as are necessary to carry out the provisions of this subsection (2), taking into consideration the standards of the national association of insurance commissioners. The commissioner may require an insurer or other regulated entity to show compliance by demonstrating that its investments are not overly concentrated in any one area, including without limitation the areas of duration, industry, issuer, or geographic location.L. 69: p. 491, § 5.
