      (b) The risk of reputational loss to the insurance licensee; and

      In addition, if the insurance licensee may have suffered significant financial losses as a result of the incident, or may suffer reputational loss, the CBB will wish to consider this and whether the incident suggests weaknesses in the insurance licensee's internal controls.
