The commissioner has the power to make such reasonable rules and regulations as may be necessary for the execution of the functions vested in him by N.H. Rev. Stat. § 402-A:1-7, and may for such purpose classify domestic stock insurance companies, securities, and other persons or matters within his jurisdiction. No provision of N.H. Rev.
