A. Nothing in the Service Warranty Act shall be deemed to authorize any service warranty association to transact any insurance business or otherwise to engage in any type of insurance unless the association is authorized under a certificate of authority issued by the Insurance Commissioner.
B. No authorized insurer or licensed service warranty association shall act as a fronting company for any unauthorized insurer or unlicensed service warranty association. As used in this subsection, a "fronting company" is an authorized insurer or licensed service warranty association which, by reinsurance or otherwise, generally transfers to one or more unauthorized insurers or unlicensed service warranty associations, the risk of loss under warranties written by the company in this state.
