On August 11, 2022, the US National Association of Insurance Commissioners’ (“NAIC”) Executive (EX) Committee adopted a request from the Restructuring Mechanisms (E) Working Group (“RM Working Group”) to reopen the Property & Casualty Insurance Guaranty Association Model Act (#540) (“Model Act #540”) for amendment to ensure that policyholders will retain guaranty fund coverage following an insurance business transfer (“IBT”) or corporate division (“CD”).

The NAIC’s Federal Home Loan Bank Legislation (E) Subgroup (the “FHLB Subgroup”) is considering, among other things, proposed amendments to the Insurer Receivership Model Act (“IRMA”) to provide certain exemptions for security agreements between insurance companies and Federal Home Loan Banks (“FHLBs”).
