Any captive insurer whose use of statutory accounting principles is approved by the commissioner may make modifications and adaptations as are necessary to record as admitted the full value of all investments by the captive insurer permitted under this subtitle and, subject to the commissioner’s approval, to make its reports under this section consistent with the purposes of this subtitle.
(c) Except as otherwise provided, all captive insurers, with the exception of those formed as a risk retention group, shall file reports on a form prescribed by the commissioner.

(4) Sixty (60) days after the fiscal year end, a branch captive insurer shall file with the commissioner a copy of all reports and statements required to be filed under the laws of the jurisdiction in which the foreign captive insurer is formed, verified by oath of two (2) of its executive officers. If the commissioner is satisfied that the annual report filed by the foreign captive insurer in its domiciliary jurisdiction provides adequate information concerning the financial condition of the foreign captive insurer, the commissioner may waive the requirement for completion of the captive annual statement for business written in the foreign jurisdiction.
