Identifying producers.

(1) If a person who has a financial interest in a title insurance agent also owns a controlling interest in another producer, then the title insurance agent must report this person and the other business entities controlled by the person as producers who have a financial interest in the title insurance agent. For example if John Brown personally has a financial interest in a title insurance agent and John Brown also owns a controlling interest in ABC Realty Co. and XYZ Home Builders Inc., then the title insurance agent, in addition to reporting John Brown as a producer, must also report ABC Realty Co. and XYZ Home Builders Inc. as producers having a financial interest in the title insurance agent.
(2) In reporting producers who have a financial interest in the title insurance agent, the information about the producer must be sufficient to properly identify the person who is directly in a position to refer or influence the referral of title insurance business to the title insurance agent.
(3) If a producer owns the financial interest in the title insurance agent through one or more intermediary entities, then the identity of the producer and the identity of other entities that the producer owns a controlling interest in that are producers must be set forth in the report. For example, if Henry Smith and Frank Jones own an interest in Joint Venture Co., and Joint Venture Co. has a financial interest in the title insurance agent, then Henry Smith and Frank Jones must be identified in the report as producers who have a financial interest in the title insurance agent, in addition to reporting other entities who are producers that are owned by Henry Smith and Frank Jones.
