EXPORT LIST
Pursuant to Insurance Code Section 1763.1, the Commissioner may by order declare
eligible for placement with a nonadmitted insurer and exempt from all the requirements
of Section 1763, except the filing of a confidential written report, any type of insurance
coverage or risk for which he or she finds after a public hearing that there is not a
reasonable or adequate market among admitted insurers.
Pursuant to this mandate, the Commissioner has previously collected information on
whether or not there is a reasonable or adequate market among admitted insurers for
certain risks or coverages. The Department reviewed the export lists in other states.
We contacted California surplus line brokers and surveyed them as to the risks most
placed by them. We received industry input from admitted carriers and through the
Surplus Line Association. We also have held annual public hearings and solicited public
comment from all interested parties including surplus line brokers, admitted insurers,
trade associations representing admitted insurers, agents and brokers, and consumer
groups to provide us with evidence of a lack of a reasonable or adequate market
amongst admitted carriers for a particular risk or coverage
