1. As to casualty insurance transacted by it, each insurer shall maintain at all times reserves in an amount estimated in the aggregate to provide for payment of all losses and claims incurred, whether reported or unreported, which are unpaid and for which the insurer may be liable and to provide for the expenses of adjustment or settlement of losses and claims. The reserves must be computed in accordance with regulations adopted from time to time by the Commissioner upon reasonable consideration of the ascertained experience and the character of such kind of business for the purpose of adequately protecting the insured and the solvency of the insurer.
2. Whenever the loss and loss expense experience of the insurer show that reserves, calculated in accordance with those regulations, are inadequate, the Commissioner may require the insurer to maintain additional reserves.
3. The Commissioner may, by regulation, prescribe the manner and form of reporting pertinent information concerning the reserves provided for in this section.
