(1) Early detection of any potentially dangerous condition in an insurer and prompt application of appropriate corrective measures;(2) Improved methods for rehabilitating insurers, involving the cooperation and management expertise of the insurance industry;(3) Enhanced efficiency and economy of liquidation, through clarification of the law, to minimize legal uncertainty and litigation;(4) Equitable apportionment of any unavoidable loss;(5) Reducing the problems of interstate rehabilitation and liquidation by facilitating cooperation between states in delinquency proceedings and by extending the scope of personal jurisdiction over debtors of the insurer outside this state;(6) Regulation of the business of insurance by the impact of the law relating to delinquency procedures and related substantive rules; and(7) Providing for a comprehensive scheme for the rehabilitation and liquidation of insurance companies and those subject to sections 38a-903 to 38a-961, inclusive, as part of the regulation of the business of insurance in the state.
