618.49 Investigation, disclosure and taxation of insurance contracts.
(1) Report on insurance. Whenever the commissioner has reason to believe that insurance has been effectuated by or for any person in this state with an unauthorized insurer, the commissioner may in writing order the person to produce for examination all insurance contracts and other documents evidencing insurance contracts and other documents evidencing insurance with both authorized and unauthorized insurers and to disclose to the commissioner the amount of insurance, name and address of each insurer, gross amount of premium and the name and address of any person who has assisted in the effectuation of the insurance.
(2) Uninsured property. The commissioner may order any owner of property situated in this state, other than property owned by a unit of government that maintains a public fire department and furnishes full fire protection for the property, to furnish in addition to the information furnished under sub. (1) information about amounts paid to or credited to any insurance fund or other reserve against loss or damage by fire. If the owner of the property has not insured it, the owner shall pay under s. 601.93 (2) an amount equal to 2 percent of the annual premium that would have been charged for insuring such property by authorized insurers using the rates promulgated by the rate service organization of which the state insurance fund is a member or subscriber under s. 604.04 (5), or which is designated for that purpose by the commissioner.
