Summary of the Introduced Bill

HB 900 -- Surplus Lines Insurance

Sponsor:  Ward

This bill amends the bonding amount required for insurance
brokers selling surplus lines insurance so as to be the lesser
of $100,000 or an amount equal to the broker's tax liability for
the previous tax year.  Currently, a bond of $10,000 is
required.  The bill also grants nonresident licensees of surplus
lines insurance the same authority as resident licensees.
Currently, the licensing of nonresidents is within the
discretion of the Department of Insurance.
