C.R.S. § 10-14-304: Reinsurance.

(1) A domestic society may, by a reinsurance agreement, cede any individual risk or risks in whole or in part to an insurer (other than another fraternal benefit society) having the power to make such reinsurance and authorized to do business in this state. It may take credit for the reserves on such ceded risks to the extent reinsured, but no credit is allowed as an admitted asset or as a deduction from liability to a ceding society for reinsurance made, ceded, renewed, or otherwise becoming effective after July 1, 1993, unless the reinsurance complies with the applicable provisions of part 7 of article 3 of this title and all pertinent insurance rules.

(2) Notwithstanding the limitation in subsection (1) of this section, a society may reinsure the risks of another society in a consolidation or merger approved by the commissioner under section 10-14-305.
