In Plain English!

Guaranty funds were introduced in Porter.12-Insolvency. The old exam problems above cover most of the other details you need to know. There are just a couple of other items you should be familiar with:

Question: describe the limitations that guaranty funds may have on reimbursements to policyholders
LOB exclusions: [Hint: C-STORM]
  • Credit, Surplus lines, Title, Ocean marine, Reinsurance, Mortgage
claims payouts and UEP refund: have stated limits (except claims payouts for WC - WC has no limit)
deductibles:
  • claim deductible
  • policy deductible
  • large net worth deductible (a percentage of an insurer's net worth)
trigger is required:
  • court must verify insolvency and have placed insurer in receivership

The other item concerns insurer assessments. If

L = insurer liabilities eligible for recovery after insolvency
NWPA = NWP of insurer A (one of the remaining solvent insurers in state)
NWPtotal = total NWP of remaining solvent insurers in state

then:

Formula:    assessmentA    =    L    x    NWPA    /    NWPtotal
