Which feature separates a stock insurer from a fraternal benefit society under Florida law?
Answer and explanation
Answer: C. Section 632.601 defines a fraternal benefit society as being without capital stock and conducted solely for the benefit of its members and their beneficiaries, not for profit, which is what marks it off from a shareholder-owned stock company. Both are insurance entities that require authority to transact, both may reinsure, and both may write life coverage.Source: Fla. Stat. § 624.610 — 624.610 read with 632.601
