Article 6
A non-life insurance enterprise that engages in injury insurance and health insurance can only offer policies with a term of less than one year and no guaranteed renewal. Notwithstanding the foregoing, non-life insurance enterprises that meet the following
qualification requirements may apply to the competent authority to offer injury insurance and health insurance policies with a term of less than three years and no guaranteed renewal:
1. Having been approved by the competent authority to engage in injury insurance and health insurance and having conducted the businesses for at least three years;
2. The ratio of total adjusted net capital to risk-based capital in the past year exceeds 1.25 times the statutory standard of the adequate capital set forth in paragraph 1, Article 143-4 of the Act ;
3. Not having been subject to any major sanction and disciplinary action by the competent authority in the past year, or if it has, concrete improvement actions have been taken to remedy the violation and recognized by the competent authority;
4. Ranking in the top fifty percent in the past year in terms of the results of the Treating Customer Fairly Principle evaluation of non-life insurance companies. The preceding provision does not apply to a non-life insurance enterprise that could provide reasonable
explanation and such explanation is accepted by the competent authority;
5. Having assisted in the development of and launched an insurance product or promoted a new business designed specifically to dovetail with government policy needs in the past three years, or having taken part in public service work in the past three years,
and in either case having performed with distinction.
The major sanction and disciplinary action as prescribed in Subparagraph 3 of the preceding Paragraph refer to Article 2 of the Regulations Governing Public Disclosure by the Financial Supervisory Commission of Material Enforcement Actions for Violations of
Financial Legislation.
When a non-life insurance enterprise engages in health insurance mentioned in the preceding paragraph, the policy shall be a primary coverage, or a rider or a clause attached to an injury insurance policy or health insurance policy.
Health insurance business conducted by a non-life insurance enterprise shall not include benefits for death except as provided for in a product that covers a critical illness or cancer; provided, however, that for insurance products that include benefits for
death by non-critical illness or non-cancer and are deemed sold by a non-life insurance enterprise due to its assumption—before the current amendment entered into force on 17 April 2014—of the business, assets, and liabilities of a life insurance enterprise,
this restriction shall not apply to policies assumed from the life insurance enterprise inasmuch as the policyholders and the insurance conditions remain the same as in the originally underwritten policies. |
