Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process.
Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as
Public
Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the
Guide.
Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes,
statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect.
If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has
not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already
been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes
made to the current law.
(215 ILCS 5/114) (from Ch. 73, par. 726)
(Section scheduled to be repealed on January 1, 2027)
Sec. 114.
Renewal of
certificate of authority.
(1) The Director shall renew for one year the certificate of authority
of a foreign or alien company on the first day of July of the calendar year
following the calendar year in which it is admitted to transact business in
this State and annually thereafter, without application by the company,
upon payment of the annual privilege tax imposed by this Code, if any,
provided the Director is satisfied that
(a) none of the facts specified in this article as |
| grounds for revoking a certificate of authority exists; and
|
|
(b) the company is complying with the conditions for
|
| admission in respect to capital, contingent liability, the investment of its assets or the maintenance of deposits in this or another state and maintains the surplus which similar domestic companies transacting the same kind or kinds of business are required to maintain.
|
|
(2) Except in case of nonpayment of taxes, the Director shall give
notice of his intention to refuse to renew the certificate of authority of
a foreign or alien company and the grounds therefor at least twenty days
before the end of the term for which the existing certificate was issued,
and, the company shall be given an opportunity for a hearing before the end
of such term.
(3) In the event that a company admitted to transact business in this
State prior to the effective date of this Code has been and is transacting
in this State or in any other state or country the kind or kinds of
business enumerated in Class 1 of Section 4 and in addition thereto any of
the kinds of business not enumerated in such class, the Director may for a
period of three years renew annually its certificate of authority to
transact such kinds of business. At the end of such three year period or at
the end of any extended period as herein provided for, the Director may
extend the period during which the certificate of authority of such company
may be renewed annually, upon a showing by the company at a hearing before
the Director that
(a) it has made reasonable progress in the
|
| discontinuance of kinds of business other than those enumerated in Class 1 of Section 4; and
|
|
(b) complete and immediate discontinuance of such
|
| kinds of business would result in undue loss to the company and the policyholders would suffer materially thereby; or
|
|
(c) there are other reasons for such extension deemed
|
| by the Director to be good and sufficient. The extension herein provided for shall be for such period as the Director may deem proper on the showing made, but the total of such extended periods shall not exceed three years.
