26-6-302. Valuation of other securities.

(a) The commissioner may, by rule or regulation, require that securities other than securities referred to in W.S. 26-6-301 and except as provided in W.S. 26-16-502(a)(iv), held by an insurer, be valued in accordance with the most recent published valuation standards of the National Association of Insurance Commissioners. At the commissioner's discretion, securities as to which the National Association of Insurance Commissioners has not published valuation standards shall be valued at their fair value, or at their appraised value or at prices the commissioner determines as representing their fair value.

(b) Preferred or guaranteed stocks or shares while paying full dividends may be carried at a fixed value instead of fair value at the commissioner's discretion and in accordance with a method of computation he approves.

(c) The stock of an insurer's subsidiary shall be valued on the basis of the value of only those assets of the subsidiary as would constitute lawful investments of the insurer if acquired or held directly by the insurer.
