Who may be an insurer?
A foreign or domestic insurance company may transact business in the Philippines but must first obtain a certificate of authority for that purpose from the Insurance Commissioner who has the discretion to refuse to issue such certificate if it will best promote the interests of the people of this country. (Sec. 187)
An individual may also be an insurer, provided he holds a certificate of authority from the Insurance Commissioner, and provided further that he is possessed of the capital assets required of an insurance corporation doing the same kind of business in the Philippines and invested in the same manner. (Secs. 184-186)
