Compliance Review, What to Expect,
How to Prepare?
The purpose of a Compliance Review is to ensure that surplus lines agents are following the statutory requirements relative to the sale of surplus lines insurance contracts.
- All licensed and appointed surplus lines agents, both resident and nonresident, may be subject to a compliance review at least once every three years.
- Each month 30 – 45 agents are selected for a Compliance Review.
- A notice of intent to review records is forwarded to each agent via email, 30 – 45 days in advance of an impending review.
- FSLSO randomly selects policies submitted by the agent. The list of selected policies is provided to the agent prior to the review.
- If an
agent has been selected for a Desk Review, the supporting documentation for the selected policies should be uploaded in SLIP+ on the Document Requests page, located under the Compliance tab, for the Compliance Review Analyst to view.
- If the agent has been selected for an On-Site Review, the supporting documentation for the selected policies should be made available electronically or in hard copy at the agent’s office, on the agreed date. A desk/table, chair, telephone and power outlet are necessary for the Compliance Review Analyst to perform their duties on-site.
- Within thirty (30) days of the review, the surplus lines agent will receive a final report from FSLSO. The surplus lines agent may be required to submit a
response/corrective action plan to address any non-compliance issues noted in the final report.
- To make this easier for you, we developed the Compliance Review Checklist. This list lays out everything we will check for during your review.
