Section 521G.6 - [Repealed Effective 1/1/2025] Use and operation of protected cells1. The protected cell assets of a protected cell shall not be charged with liabilities arising out of any other business the protected cell company may conduct. A contract or other documentation reflecting protected cell liabilities shall clearly indicate that only the protected cell assets of a protected cell are available for the satisfaction of the protected cell liabilities attributed to that same protected cell.2. The income, gains, and losses, realized or unrealized, from protected cell assets and protected cell liabilities shall be credited to or charged against the protected cell without regard to other income, gains, or losses of the protected cell company, including income, gains, or losses of another protected cell. An amount attributed to a protected cell and accumulations on the attributed amount may be invested and reinvested without regard to the requirements and limitations of section 511.8 or 515.35, and the investments in a protected cell shall not be taken into account in applying the investment limitations otherwise applicable to the investments of the protected cell company.3. Assets and liabilities attributed to a protected cell shall be valued at their fair value on the date of valuation.4.a. A protected cell company, with respect to its protected cells, shall engage in fully funded indemnity triggered insurance securitization to support in full the protected cell exposures attributable to that protected cell. A protected cell company insurance securitization that is nonindemnity triggered qualifies as an insurance securitization under this chapter only after the commissioner adopts rules providing for all of the following:(1) The methods of funding of the portion of the risk that is not indemnity based.(2) Accounting requirements.(3) Disclosure requirements.(4) Risk-based capital treatment.(5) Assessment of risks associated with such securitizations.b. A protected cell company insurance securitization that is not fully funded, whether indemnity triggered or nonindemnity triggered, is prohibited. Protected cell assets may be used to pay interest or other consideration on an outstanding debt or other obligation attributable to that protected cell. This subsection shall not be construed or interpreted to prevent a protected cell company from entering into a swap agreement or other transaction for the account of the protected cell that has the effect of guaranteeing interest or other consideration.5. In a protected cell company insurance securitization, a contract or other documentation affecting the transaction shall contain provisions identifying the protected cell to which the transaction is attributed. In addition, the contract or other documentation shall clearly disclose that the assets of the protected cell, and only those assets, are available to pay the obligations of that protected cell. Notwithstanding this subsection, the failure to include such language in a contract or other documentation shall not be used as the sole basis by a creditor, reinsurer, or other claimant to circumvent this chapter.6. A protected cell company shall only attribute to a protected cell account the insurance obligations relating to the protected cell company's general account. A protected cell shall not issue an insurance or reinsurance contract directly to a policyholder or reinsured, and shall not have an obligation to a policyholder or reinsured of the protected cell company's general account.7. At the cessation of business of a protected cell pursuant to the plan approved by the commissioner, the protected cell company shall close the protected cell account.2000 Acts, ch 1046, §6; 2007 Acts, ch 137, §22
