58-37A-26. Annual statement of affairs--Valuation of certificates--Filing requirements.
Every society transacting business in this state shall annually, on or before the first day of March, unless for cause shown the time has been extended by the director, file with the director a true statement of its financial condition, transactions and affairs for the preceding calendar year. A fraternal benefit society receiving premiums, as defined in subdivision 10-44-1(5), in an amount of two hundred thousand dollars or more shall pay a five hundred dollar annual statement filing fee to the state. A fraternal benefit society receiving premiums, as defined in subdivision 10-44-1(5), in an amount less than two hundred thousand dollars, shall pay a one hundred dollar annual statement filing fee to the state. The statement shall be in general form and content as approved by the national association of insurance commissioners for fraternal benefit societies and as supplemented by additional information required by the director.
As a part of the annual statement, each society shall, on or before the first day of March, file with the director a valuation of its certificates in force on December thirty-first last preceding. However, the director may for cause shown, extend the time for filing the valuation for not more than two calendar months. The valuation shall be done in accordance with the standards specified in §58-37A-25. The valuation and underlying data shall be certified by a qualified actuary or, at the expense of the society, verified by the actuary of the insurance regulatory agency of the state of domicile of the society.
A society neglecting to file the annual statement in the form and within the time provided by this section shall forfeit one hundred dollars for each day during which the neglect continues, and, upon notice by the director to that effect, its authority to do business in this state shall cease while the default continues.
