Ins 51.05(5)(5)The risks identified under sub. (4) shall be provided for as determined in each case by applying the factors in the manner set forth in the risk based capital instructions.
Ins 51.05 NoteNote: An excess of capital over the amount produced by the risk based capital requirements in this subchapter and the formulas, schedules and instructions referenced in this subchapter is desirable in the business of insurance. Accordingly, insurers should seek to maintain capital above the risk based capital levels required by this subchapter. Additional capital is used and useful in the insurance business and helps to secure an insurer against various risks inherent in, or affecting, the business of insurance and not accounted for or only partially measured by the risk-based capital requirements contained in this chapter.
Ins 51.05(6)(6)If a domestic insurer files a risk based capital report which in the judgment of the commissioner is inaccurate, then the commissioner shall adjust the risk based capital report to correct the inaccuracy and shall notify the insurer of the adjustment. The notice shall contain a statement of the reason for the adjustment.
