Section 618.23 - Requirements for nondomestic reciprocals(1) CONDITIONS OF AUTHORIZATION. No nondomestic reciprocal may be authorized to do business in this state unless under the laws of its domicile or the provisions of its power of attorney or otherwise it can sue and be sued in its own name, and the assets resulting from the exchange of insurance contracts can be reached by its creditors; and either:(a)Nonassessable reciprocals. If it issues only nonassessable policies, it meets all the financial requirements for a mutual corporation in like circumstances including surplus, whether unallocated or in subscribers' accounts, that is at least as great as the level specified by s. 623.11; or(b)Assessable reciprocals. If it issues any assessable policies, it meets all the requirements for a mutual corporation issuing assessable policies in like circumstances and its subscribers are liable to the exchange to the limit of their assessability without regard to the validity or collectibility of any assessment levied against other subscribers.(2) SUBSTITUTE FOR THE LIABILITY UNDER SUB. (1) (B). Where the liability of subscribers does not satisfy sub. (1) (b), the commissioner may nevertheless authorize an assessable reciprocal if he or she is satisfied that practices are actually followed by the attorney in fact which ensure the capacity and willingness of all subscribers to pay assessments if called upon to do so, or which otherwise ensure the solidity of the operation.(3) CORPORATION PROVISIONS APPLICABLE. To the extent consistent with the nature of a reciprocal, the provisions of ch. 611 that are made applicable to nondomestic mutual corporations by s. 618.21 apply to nondomestic reciprocals and the provisions and requirements applicable to principal officers of corporations apply to the attorneys in fact of reciprocal insurers.1971 c. 260; 1979 c. 102 s. 236 (5).
