Answer & full 3-part explanation (select an option above, or peek)
Why B is correct
Reg. 1-1-7 of the Colorado Division of Insurance requires licensees to maintain their records in a manner that makes their insurance business practices readily ascertainable, so the Division can examine whether the licensee has complied with Colorado insurance laws and regulations. The records exist for oversight, not for the licensee's own convenience.
Why the other options are wrong
- A) Reg. 1-1-7 governs the organization and retention of the licensee's own records; it does not require filing every policy with the Division of Insurance.
- C) Commission calculation is a business matter; the regulation exists to enable Division of Insurance oversight of business practices.
- D) The records are maintained for Division examination, not for a public database of policyholders.
Memory hook
Keep it findable — the Division has to be able to read your practices.
