A title insurer would be considered foreign if it is formed in which jurisdiction?

• A. Out-of-State Jurisdiction
• B. In-State Colorado
• C. Local County Office
• D. Within Colorado State Agencies

Answer: (A)

Foreign status hinges on where an insurer is formed relative to the state in which it does business. A Colorado title insurer is considered domestic if it’s formed in Colorado, and foreign if it’s formed outside Colorado. So an insurer formed in an out-of-state jurisdiction is foreign to Colorado. The other options don’t describe where the company was formed, so they aren’t about its foreign status. This distinction matters because foreign insurers must be licensed to transact business in Colorado.
