AUTHORIZED INVESTMENTS: INSURER ENGAGED IN BUSINESS IN FOREIGN COUNTRY.

(a) Subject to this section, an insurer authorized by the law of a foreign country to engage in a line of insurance in which the insurer is authorized to engage in this state may invest in foreign securities originating in the foreign country of the same kind as the domestic securities originating in the United States in which the insurer is authorized to invest under Sections 424.051, 424.053-424.071, and 424.074.

(b) The aggregate amount of an insurer's investments made under this section in a single country may not exceed by more than 10 percent at any time the lesser of:

(1) the amount of funds required by the law of the foreign country to be maintained in securities originating in that country; or

(2) the amount of total unearned premium reserves, reinsurance reserves, loss reserves, and any other liabilities required by the law of this state to be carried by the insurer that are directly attributable to the particular insurance policies or contracts on residents or property located in the foreign country.

(c) This section does not authorize an insurer to invest in a foreign security originating in a foreign country with respect to which the president of the United States or other federal authority has refused to exercise the authority to issue guarantees on projects in the country to citizens or corporations of the United States against loss by reason of inconvertibility of currency, expropriation, confiscation, war, revolution, or insurrection because the foreign country has failed to enter into arrangements for the security of American property as required by the president or other federal authority for the issuance of those guarantees.
