Text

For purposes of this chapter, any controlling person of a domestic insurer seeking to divest the controlling interest in the domestic insurer, in any manner, shall file with the director, with a copy to the insurer, confidential notice of its proposed divestiture at least thirty days prior to the cessation of control. The director shall determine any instance in which a party seeking to divest or to acquire a controlling interest in an insurer is required to file for and obtain approval of the transaction.

The information shall remain confidential until the conclusion of the transaction unless the director determines that confidential treatment interferes with enforcement of this section. If the statement referred to in § 58-5A-3 is otherwise filed, the provisions of this section do not apply.
