According to a statement issued by the Commission here on Friday, in order to ensure compliance with the law, the SECP has sought clarification from 35 insurance companies for failing to comply with the mandatory provisions requiring the submission of statement of assets and liabilities for the last quarter. The information provided through the statements is critical for the supervision and monitoring of the insurance industry in Pakistan. It helps the SECP watch the interests of policyholders of insurance companies, the statement said.
