      2. (ii) Otherwise sufficient in terms of providing for group-wide supervision, enterprise risk analysis, and cooperation with other regulatory officials.
   5. (e) Whether another regulatory official acting, or seeking to act, as the group-wide supervisor for the internationally active insurance group provides the superintendent with reasonably reciprocal recognition and cooperation.

2. (2) If the superintendent is identified in division (B)(1) of this section as the group-wide supervisor of an internationally active insurance group, the superintendent may determine that it is appropriate to acknowledge another supervisor to serve as the group-wide supervisor.

   1. (a) After consideration of the factors listed in division (B)(1) of this section;
   2. (b) In cooperation with and subject to the acknowledgment of other regulatory officials involved with supervision of members of the internationally active insurance group;

2. (2) The superintendent shall make a determination or acknowledgment under division (B) of this section as to the appropriate group-wide supervisor for an internationally active insurance group if a material change in the internationally active insurance group results in either of the following:

   1. (a) The internationally active insurance group's insurers domiciled in this state holding the largest share of the group's premiums, assets, or liabilities;
   2. (b) This state being the place of domicile of the top-tiered insurer in the internationally active insurance group's insurance holding company system.

1.

2. (2) Prior to issuing a determination that an internationally active insurance group is subject to group-wide supervision by the superintendent, the superintendent shall notify the insurer registered under section 3901.33 of the Revised Code and the ultimate controlling person within the internationally active insurance group. The superintendent shall give the internationally active insurance group not less than thirty days to provide the superintendent with additional information pertinent to the pending determination.
3. (3) The superintendent shall publish on its internet web site the identity of internationally active insurance groups that the superintendent has determined are subject to group-wide supervision by the superintendent.

1. (1) Assess the enterprise risks within the internationally active insurance group to ensure all of the following:

   1. (a) That the material financial condition and liquidity risks to members of the internationally active insurance group that are engaged in the business of insurance are identified by management;
   2. (b) That reasonable and effective mitigation measures are in place.

5. (5) Enter into agreements with or obtain documentation from any insurer registered under section 3901.33 of the Revised Code, any member of the internationally active insurance group, and any other state, federal, and international regulatory agency for members of the internationally active insurance group, that provides the basis for or otherwise clarifies the superintendent's role as group-wide supervisor. The agreements or documentation may include provisions for resolving disputes with other regulatory officials. The agreements or documentation shall not serve as evidence in any proceeding to show that any insurer or person within an insurance holding company system not domiciled or incorporated in this state is doing business in this state or is otherwise subject to jurisdiction in this state.
6. (6) Any other group-wide supervision activities consistent with this section that the superintendent considers necessary.

(F) If the superintendent acknowledges that another regulatory official from a jurisdiction that is not accredited by the national association of insurance commissioners is the group-wide supervisor of an internationally active insurance group, the superintendent may reasonably cooperate, through a supervisory college as set forth in section 3901.351 of the Revised Code or otherwise, with group-wide supervision undertaken by the group-wide supervisor if all of the following are true:

1. (1) The superintendent's cooperation is in compliance with the Revised Code.
2. (2) The regulatory official also recognizes and cooperates with the superintendent's activities as a group-wide supervisor for other internationally active insurance groups, as applicable.
