Section 500.8132 - Amount recoverable by liquidator from reinsurers; reduction prohibited; reinsurer's obligation to insurer's estate; assumption of obligations by life and health insurance guaranty association(1) The amount recoverable by the liquidator from reinsurers shall not be reduced as a result of the delinquency proceedings, regardless of any provision in the reinsurance contract or other agreement. The reinsurance shall be payable pursuant to the terms of the reinsurance contract by the assuming insurer on the basis of reported claims allowed by the liquidation court, except as provided in subsection (2), without diminution because of the insolvency of the ceding insurer. Payment made directly to an insured or other creditor shall not diminish the reinsurer's obligation to the insurer's estate unless the reinsurance contract requires or an endorsement signed by the reinsurer to the policies reinsured requires the reinsurer to make payment to the payees under the policies reinsured if the ceding insurer became insolvent.(2) If a life and health insurance guaranty association or its designated successor life or health insurer has assumed policy obligations as direct obligations of the insolvent ceding insurer and has succeeded to the rights of the insolvent insurer under the contract of reinsurance, then the reinsurer's liability shall continue under the contract of reinsurance and shall be payable pursuant to the direction of the guaranty association or its designated successor. As a condition to succeeding to the insolvent insurer's rights under the contract, the guaranty association or successor life or health insurer shall be responsible for premiums payable under the reinsurance contract for periods after the date of liquidation.Add. 1989, Act 302, Imd.
