Section 33-17-17 - Advancement of sums to insurer by attorney or other parties; withdrawal or repayment of advances

The attorney or other parties may advance to a domestic reciprocal insurer upon reasonable terms any funds as it may require from time to time in its operations. Sums so advanced shall not be treated as a liability of the insurer and, except upon liquidation of the insurer, shall not be withdrawn or repaid except out of the insurer's realized earned surplus in excess of its minimum required surplus. No withdrawal or repayment shall be made without the advance approval of the Commissioner.
