The correct statements accurately reflect the two fundamental regulatory concepts of Guaranty Associations: they protect consumers up to statutory limits during an insurer's insolvency, and producers are strictly prohibited from using this protection as a marketing or sales inducement.

The Guaranty Association protects policyholders if an insurer becomes insolvent, up to statutory limits.
This is the fundamental purpose of the Association as established by state law.
