extension by the lead state regulator based on reasonable

grounds shown.

data year.

(E) Insurers that do not trigger at least one threshold of

the scope criteria are considered scoped out of the NAIC

liquidity stress test framework for the specified data year,

unless the lead state regulator, in consultation with the NAIC

Financial Stability Task Force or its successor, determines the

the jurisdiction outside the United States, that jurisdiction

outside the United States notifies the lead state regulator in

writing, with a copy to the IAIS, that the group capital

calculation is an acceptable international capital standard. The

notification shall serve as the confirmation required under

subparagraph (i).

(2) The entities located outside the United States'

jurisdiction provide confirmation by a competent regulatory

authority in the jurisdiction under paragraph (1)(ii) that

information regarding insurers and the parent, subsidiary or

20220SB1222PN1853 - 11 -

(4) Upon determination that a jurisdiction outside of the

United States no longer meets one or more of the requirements to

recommendation to the NAIC that the jurisdiction outside the

United States be removed from the list of jurisdictions that

recognize and accept the group capital calculation.
