ORS 743.218 Requirements for determination of future premium amounts or minimum values

In the case of policies of life insurance which provide for determination of future premium amounts by the insurer on the basis of current estimates of future experience, or policies of life insurance which are of such a nature that minimum values cannot in the judgment of the Director of the Department of Consumer and Business Services be determined by the methods otherwise described in the Standard Nonforfeiture Law for Life Insurance, the following requirements shall apply:

The director must be satisfied that the policy benefits are substantially as favorable to policyholders and insureds as the minimum benefits otherwise required by the Standard Nonforfeiture Law for Life Insurance;

The director must be satisfied that the benefits and the pattern of premiums of the policy are not misleading to prospective policyholders or insureds; and

The cash surrender values and paid-up nonforfeiture benefits provided by the policy must not be less than the minimum values and benefits required for the policy as calculated by a method consistent with the principles of the Standard Nonforfeiture Law for Life Insurance, as determined under rules issued by the director.
