(Cite as: 8 V.S.A. § 6007)
  • § 6007. Reports and statements

    (a) Captive insurance companies shall not be required to make any annual report except as provided in this chapter.

    (b) Prior to March 1 of each year, and prior to March 15 of each year in the case of pure captive insurance companies, association captive insurance companies, sponsored captive insurance companies, industrial insured captive insurance companies, or agency captive insurance companies, each captive insurance company shall submit to the Commissioner a report of its financial condition, verified by oath of two of its executive officers. Each captive insurance company shall report using generally accepted accounting principles, statutory accounting principles, or international financial reporting standards unless the Commissioner requires, approves, or accepts the use of any other comprehensive basis of accounting, in each case with any appropriate or necessary modifications or adaptations thereof required or approved or accepted by the Commissioner for the type of insurance and kinds of insurers to be reported upon, and as supplemented by additional information required by the Commissioner. As used in this section, statutory accounting principles shall mean the accounting principles codified in the NAIC Accounting Practices and Procedures Manual. Upon application for admission, a captive insurance company shall select, with explanation, an accounting method for reporting. Any change in a captive insurance company’s accounting method shall require prior approval. Except as otherwise provided, each risk retention group shall file its report in the form required by subsection 3561(a) of this title, and each risk retention group shall comply with the requirements set forth in section 3569 of this title. The Commissioner shall by rule propose the forms in which pure captive insurance companies, association captive insurance companies, sponsored captive insurance companies, and industrial insured captive insurance companies shall report. Subdivision 6002(c)(3) of this title shall apply to each report filed pursuant to this section, except that such subdivision shall not apply to reports filed by risk retention groups.

    (c) Any pure captive insurance company, association captive insurance company, sponsored captive insurance company, industrial insured captive insurance company, or agency captive insurance company may make written application for filing the required report on a fiscal year-end. If an alternative reporting date is granted:

    (1) the annual report is due 75 days after the fiscal year-end; and

    (2) in order to provide sufficient detail to support the premium tax return, the captive insurance company shall file prior to March 15 of each year for each calendar year-end, the premium schedule of the “Vermont Captive Insurance Company Annual Report.” (Added 1981, No. 28; amended 1991, No. 101, § 19; 1993, No. 40, § 5, eff.
