Cevap
The correct statements are that forging a signature on an insurance document is grounds for revocation, and having a license suspended in another jurisdiction is valid grounds for disciplinary action in the producer's home state.
State insurance codes universally recognize forgery and reciprocal disciplinary actions (such as suspensions in other states) as explicit statutory grounds for license suspension, revocation, or non-renewal. These actions directly address a producer's trustworthiness and legal fitness to hold a license.
