2014 Hawaii Revised Statutes
TITLE 24. INSURANCE
431. Insurance Code
431:9-207 Scope of examination

Case Notes

Where management company for foreign insurer authorized to do business in Hawaii did not hold a general agent, subagent, or solicitor license under this article (1993), it could not have been legally appointed as either a general agent, subagent, or solicitor of insurer; thus it did not qualify as a "general agent", "subagent", or "solicitor" as defined by this chapter (1993), did not fall within the parameters of the category described by §237-13(7) and was thus subject to a general excise tax rate of four per cent pursuant to §237-13(6). 115 H. 180, 166 P.3d 353 (2007).

§431:9-207 Scope of examination (a) Each examination shall be as the commissioner prescribes and shall be of reasonably sufficient scope to test the applicant's knowledge relative to the classes of insurance which may be dealt with under the license applied for, and of the duties and responsibilities of, and the laws of this State applicable to, such licensee.

(b) The commissioner is required to prepare and make available to insurers and applicants a printed manual specifying in general terms the subjects which may be covered in any examination for a particular license. [L 1987, c 347, pt of §2; am L 2001, c 216, §10]
