A complete set of the signed documents must be kept at the insurer’s premises so that they are available for examination by the AMF, if necessary. Monetary administrative penalties We remind you that each insurer is responsible for ensuring that the AMF receives on the dates it determines all required documents and information. Pursuant to sections 491 and following of the Act, monetary administrative penalties may be imposed if an authorized insurer fails to send the required documents and information to the AMF or if they are incomplete or filed late or if it refuses to communicate or provide access to the documents.
