3 Colo. Code Regs. § 702-3-1-10-2

Current through Register Vol. 47, No. 24, December 25, 2024
Section 3 CCR 702-3-1-10-2 - Scope and Purpose

Colorado insurance law provides that regulated companies must file financial statements annually with the Commissioner of Insurance. Insurers subject to the provisions of § 10-3-208, C.R.S. are required to file what is known as the convention blank adopted from year to year by the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC). Colorado law does not specifically prescribe a form of the annual statement filing for nonprofit hospital, medical-surgical, and health service corporations, health maintenance organizations, prepaid dental care plan organizations, group captive insurers and fraternal benefit societies. However, the NAIC does adopt convention blanks for each of these regulated companies and the Commissioner has been provided the authority to designate the form of the annual filing for these entities.

In addition to the annual statements, the NAIC also adopts instruction and procedure manuals for the convention blanks. These manuals include information which contributes to the body of knowledge referred to as statutory accounting practices.

The purpose of this regulation is twofold:

1. To enhance the consistency of the accounting treatment of assets, liabilities, reserves, income and expenses by setting forth the accounting standards, practices and procedures to be followed in completing all of the required annual statements.
2. To set forth the form of the financial statements to be filed for those entities which do not have the form prescribed in statute.
