1. Every such insurer, unless exempted by or pursuant to regulation, shall also annually submit an opinion of the same qualified actuary as to whether the reserves and related actuarial items held in support of the policies and contracts specified by the Commissioner by regulation, when considered in light of the assets held by the insurer with respect to the reserves and related actuarial items, including the earnings on the assets invested and the considerations anticipated to be received and retained under the policies and contracts, make adequate provision for the insurer’s obligations under the policies and contracts, including the benefits under and expenses associated with the policies and contracts.
2. The Commissioner may provide by regulation for a period of transition for establishing any higher reserves which the qualified actuary may deem necessary in order to render the opinion required by this section and NRS 681B.210.
3. The holding of additional reserves determined by a qualified actuary to be necessary to render the opinion required by this section or NRS 681B.210, shall not be deemed to be the adoption of a higher standard of valuation for the purposes of NRS 681B.120 or 681B.140.
4. Except as otherwise provided in NRS 681B.310, the provisions of this section apply only before the operative date of the Valuation Manual.
