AS 21.14.090. Confidentiality; Restrictions On Use.

   (a) Except as provided in AS 21.06.060 and this subsection, a report required under AS 21.14.010, a plan required under AS 21.14.060, the results or report of an examination or analysis of an insurer performed under this chapter, and a corrective order issued by the director are confidential and may not be made public by the director or another person. Information in a risk based capital report that is also set out in a publicly available annual statement schedule is not confidential.
   (b) The calculation of risk based capital for an insurer constitutes a regulatory tool that may indicate a need for corrective action, and the calculation may not be used as a means to rank insurers. Except as otherwise required in this chapter, a person may not directly or indirectly use information regarding the risk based capital of an insurer. If a materially false statement regarding an insurer's risk based capital or an inappropriate comparison of any other amount to the insurer's risk based capital is published and the insurer is able to demonstrate with substantial proof, as determined by the director, the falsity or inappropriateness of the statement, the insurer may publish an announcement exclusively to rebut the materially false statement or inappropriate comparison.
   (c) The director may use the risk based capital instructions, report, adjusted report, plan, and revised plan only for monitoring the solvency of an insurer or for determining the need for corrective action by an insurer. Notwithstanding AS 21.39, documents described in this subsection may not be considered or introduced as evidence in a rate proceeding or used by the director to calculate or derive any elements of an appropriate premium level or rate of return for a line of insurance that an insurer or an affiliate is authorized to write.
