2019 Nevada Revised Statutes
Chapter 682A - Investments
NRS 682A.504 - Required reserve amount.

1. For the purposes of determining the amount of assets to be maintained in accordance with this section, the calculation of adjusted loss reserves and loss adjustment expense reserves, adjusted unearned premium reserves and statutorily required policy and contract reserves must be based on the amounts reported as of the most recent annual or quarterly statement date.

2. Adjusted loss reserves and loss adjustment expense reserves must be, for each individual line of business, equal to the sum derived by multiplying the amount obtained pursuant to paragraph (a) by the amount obtained pursuant to paragraph (b), and subtracting from the product obtained by way of that multiplication the amount obtained pursuant to paragraph (c), as follows:

(a) The result of each amount reported by the insurer as losses and loss adjustment expenses unpaid for each accident year for each individual line of business.

(b) The discount factor that is applicable to the line of business and accident year published by the Internal Revenue Service in accordance with the provisions of section 846 of the Internal Revenue Code, 26 U.S.C. § 846, as amended, for the calendar year that corresponds to the most recent annual statement of the insurer.

(c) Accrued retrospective premiums discounted by an average discount factor. The discount factor used in this paragraph must be calculated by dividing the losses and loss adjustment expenses unpaid after discounting by loss and loss adjustment expense reserves before discounting the amount obtained pursuant to paragraph (a).

3. For purposes of the calculations required pursuant to subsection 2, the losses and loss adjustment expenses unpaid must be determined net of anticipated salvage and subrogation, and gross of any discount for the time value of money or tabular discount.

4. Adjusted unearned premium reserves must be equal to the sum derived by subtracting the amount obtained pursuant to paragraph (b) from the amount obtained pursuant to paragraph (a), as follows:

(a) The amount reported by the insurer as unearned premium reserves.

(b) The admitted asset amounts reported by the insurer as:

(1) Premiums in and agent’s balances in the course of collection, accident and health premiums due and unpaid and uncollected premiums for accident and health premiums;

(2) Premiums, agent’s balances and installments booked but deferred and not yet due; and

(3) Bills receivable, taken for premium.

5. Statutorily required policy and contract reserves also must include, without limitation, any required contingency reserves, including, without limitation, in the case of a mortgage guaranty insurer, the amounts required by NRS 681B.100.
