Current through Reg. 49, No. 49; December 6, 2024
Section 4.1110 - Calculation of Reserves(a) Reserves for an acceleration-of-life-insurance benefit must be based on tables of disablement, morbidity, or mortality appropriate for determining liability for the benefits provided. Such disablement or morbidity tables must be certified as appropriate by a member of the American Academy of Actuaries and approved by the Texas Department of Insurance under Insurance Code § 425.058(k), concerning Computation of Minimum Standard: General Rule, and §425.069, concerning Reserve Computation: Indeterminate Premium Plans and Certain Other Plans. Reserves for the death benefits or other supplementary benefits provided by a life insurance contract that includes an acceleration-of-life-insurance benefit must be calculated disregarding such benefit, using mortality and interest rates as provided in Insurance Code Chapter 425, concerning Reserves and Investments for Life Insurance. The basis of reserves for any life insurance contract that contains an acceleration-of-life-insurance benefit provision must accompany the filing of the contract with the Texas Department of Insurance.(b) Reserves for an acceleration-of-life-insurance benefit under the lien method for determining benefits under § 4.1106(3) of this title (relating to Methods for Determining Benefits and Allowable Charges and Fees), including accrued interest, represent assets of the company for statutory reporting purposes. For any life insurance contract on which the lien exceeds the policy's statutory reserve liability, such excess must be held as a non-admitted asset.28 Tex. Admin. Code § 4.1110
