    • CI-3.2.1

      Module BC (Business Conduct) comprises general rules (BC-1) and a Code of Practice (BC-2). These rules apply in full to captive insurers. However, it should be noted that BC is principles-based. Because a captive insurer is insuring the risks of its parent group, it would be acceptable for the level of sales documentation and written disclosure to be less than would be required for retail customers. The CBB considers this to be compatible and consistent with maintaining a professional insurer-insured relationship between the parties.

    • CI-3.2.2

      The CBB expects the insurance manager to consider the requirements of the Code in relation to the service provided, on behalf of the captive, to its 'clients', namely insured members of the group. In most situations, for captives, the CBB would expect however that the requirements of the Code could be met by putting in place a simple protocol between the captive and the insured members of the group.
