The correct statements are that Guaranty Association protection cannot be used as a sales inducement (an unfair trade practice), and that the Association protects resident policyholders when an authorized insurer becomes insolvent.
The correct options accurately reflect two fundamental rules of Guaranty Associations: they are designed to protect the public from authorized insurer insolvencies, and producers are strictly prohibited from using this consumer safety net as a marketing tool or sales inducement.
