Insurance: annuities and life insurance policies.

Existing law generally regulates classes of insurance, including life insurance and annuities. Existing law requires insurers to establish a system to supervise recommendations and set standards and procedures for recommendations for annuity products, which applies to any recommendation to purchase, exchange, or replace an annuity made to a consumer that results in the purchase, exchange, or replacement that was recommended. Existing law requires an insurance producer recommending the purchase or exchange of an annuity to have reasonable grounds for believing that the recommendation is suitable for the consumer, as specified.
