Sec. 38a-673. (Formerly Sec. 38-201k). Advisory organizations. (a) No advisory organization shall conduct its operations in this state unless and until it has filed with the Insurance Commissioner (1) a copy of its constitution, articles of incorporation, agreement or association and the bylaws, or rules and regulations governing its activities, all duly certified by the custodian of the originals thereof, (2) a list of its members and subscribers, and (3) the name and address of a resident of this state upon whom notices or orders of the commissioner or process may be served.

(b) Every such advisory organization shall notify the Insurance Commissioner promptly of every change in its constitution, its articles of incorporation, agreement or association, and of its bylaws, rules and regulations governing the conduct of its business, its list of members and subscribers and the name and address of the resident of this state designated by it upon whom notices or orders of the commissioner or process affecting such organization may be served.

(c) With respect to personal and commercial risk insurance, no such advisory organization may compile for or distribute to insurers generally, recommendations relating to rates that include profit, general and other acquisition expenses, commission and brokerage, taxes or licenses and fees, nor file rates, supplementary rate information or supporting information on behalf of an insurer that includes profit, general and other acquisition expenses, commission and brokerage, taxes or licenses and fees. The provisions of this subsection may be waived by the Insurance Commissioner when it would be in the public interest and shall not apply to residual markets.

(d) Any advisory organization may collect, compile and disseminate to insurers and other persons compilations of past and current premiums of insurers.

(e) No such advisory organization shall engage in any unfair or unreasonable practice with respect to such activities.
