NRS 681B.140 Calculation of reserves on higher or lower standards; rate of interest; applicability.
1. Reserves for any category of policies, contracts or benefits as established by the Commissioner, issued on or after January 1, 1972, may be calculated, at the option of the insurer, according to any standards which produce greater aggregate reserves for the category than those calculated according to the minimum standards provided by subsections 2 and 3 of NRS 681B.120 and 681B.125 , but the rate or rates of interest used for policies and contracts other than the annuity and pure endowment contracts must not be higher than the corresponding rate or rates of interest used in calculating any nonforfeiture benefits provided for in such policies.
2. Any insurer which has adopted a standard of valuation producing greater aggregate reserves as described in subsection 1 may, with the approval of the Commissioner, adopt a lower standard of valuation, but not lower than the minimum described in subsection 1.
3. The minimum standard for the valuation of policies and contracts issued before January 1, 1972, must be that provided by the laws in effect immediately preceding that date.
4. Except as otherwise provided in NRS 681B.310 , the provisions of this section apply only to, or in connection with, policies and contracts issued on or after January 1, 1972, and before the operative date of the Valuation Manual .
