Section 1063.74 - Special bond assessments(a) Notwithstanding any other limits on assessments, CIGA shall have the authority to levy upon member insurers special bond assessments in the amount necessary to pay the principal of and interest on the bonds, and to meet other requirements established by agreements relating to the bonds. The assessments shall be collected only from the member insurers providing insurance in the category described in paragraph (2) of subdivision (a) of Section 1063.5 for which the bonds are issued, and shall be applied in the same manner as separate premium payments are used to pay the claims and costs allocated to that category pursuant to Section 1063.5. Special bond assessments made pursuant to this section shall also be subject to the surcharge provisions in Sections 1063.14 and 1063.145.(b) Notwithstanding any other law, after all bonds issued pursuant to this article have been redeemed, no further initial special bond assessments shall be levied or made. Any premium adjustments called for and described in Section 1063.5, as applied to special bond assessments initially charged, shall continue to be made and determined. Any credits or charges that result from the premium adjustments on the special bond assessments shall be credited or charged to the assessments called for and described in Section 1063.5.(c) In addition to the special bond assessments provided for in this section, the board in its discretion and subject to other obligations of the association, may utilize current funds of CIGA, premium assessments made under Section 1063.5, and advances or dividends received from the liquidators of insolvent insurers to pay the principal of and interest on any bonds issued at the board's request and shall utilize, to the extent feasible, the recoveries from the liquidators of the estates of insolvent insurers in the respective category of insurance to pay bonds issued at the board's request to fund the corresponding insurance claims in that category of insurance.Amended by Stats 2022 ch 408 (AB 2154),s 13, eff. 1/1/2023.Amended by Stats 2014 ch 76 (AB 2230),s 2, eff. 1/1/2015.Added by Stats 2003 ch 635 (AB 227), s 7, eff. 1/1/2004.
